Session won't stick in Vista IIS 7, classic ASP app

[Guest]

Just got new PC with Vista Ultimate. Transferred my classic ASP program over
and can connect fine to the site and the Access database (thanks to your IIS7
forum). But I can't get my session variables to set in the IIS7/Vista
environment!

I checked everything in article
http://clasicasp.aspfaq.com/genera/why-won-t-my-session-variables-stick.html,
all is OK.

Also, it's not a browser issue cause I can access the site copy on my
Win2000 pc fine from the browser on the Vista machine.

My settings on IIS 7 are:
- For Session State settings, Mode= "In Process" (and the ASP.NET state
service is running), , Cookie settings = "Use Cookies, and "Use hosting
identify for impersonation" is enabled.
- For ASP, Services, Session Properties, "Enable Session State" = True

I disabled my McAfee security center completely to test and it still did not
work.

Any other suggestions??

NOTE: For testing, I simply set a session & application variable in the
global.asa file sub Application_OnStart and Session_OnStart ..(i.e.,
Application("Users")=0, session("test") = "test"), I then try to retrieve it
on the home page (i.e., response.write(session("test") ...)

UPDATE: It appears the global.asa isn't firing since the
session/application variables stick fine if set elsewhere in the app. Why
might the global.asa not work? I created the site by adding a new "Virtual
Directory" to the default web site.

Thanks

Got answer in another forum ... in IIS7, the site must be set up as an
application, not a virtual directory, in order for the global.asa to fire.
