    IIS 5 to IIS7

    I have written an application using ASP.NET 3.5,   XP and  IIS 5. The application runs fine on my local machine. I can connect to the app - the worker process fires up and I am able to open as many IE browsers against it as I wish. I can close them - open them at will and the application behaves as if I am connecting to one instance of IIS (not sure about terminology here)?

    I have put it on a third party web server. The application runs fine while I have the browser open. if I close the browser and reopen - say 5 minutes later it connects to the instance I set running. If I leave it an hour after closing all browsers from my client to the remote web server it seems as if it starts a new instance. The one I set running has been lost?

     What am I doing wrong or what do I need to ask the guys who run the web site to set?

     All help appreciated - I stuck here!

    sounds like your provider has a policy of shutting down if there is no activity after a set amount of time.   This is common in shared hosting, it preserves resources on the server.  I'd suggest contacting them and see if they have a policy on the application pool.
