thanks,
But I am not using the default, unless if someone did not specify the keep alive timeout value, it takes the default value. I have tried doing that but wil monitor it and give you feedback.

Thanks

I believe you need to take a look at the User Profiles, if you are just using the default profile the Keepalive Timeout is also set in there as well.

Cookies!...

Activate cokies "login by" in the Server profiles section, the keepalive and idle is better in 0.
