Hi Alvin,

Below mentioned were some fix for this issue...when it comes to shared
hosting how far will this work and again FYI windows server with no firewall
and No AV is best to be thrown in garbage as it will be of zero
use...Microsoft plese give some sensible fix if not please leave us to get
them fixed in some ways that does not make things complicated...

RESOLUTION
1. Adjust the settings on the application pools so that recycling is less
likely to occur at peak periods.
2. Use a specific key in the machine.config to prevent automatic key
generation on each process start
3. Only post to the same ASPX page
4. Turn off firewall and antivirus software

Above were the solutions...
