session_state fires again

[Guest]

I am working with an asp.net app and I am unable to figure out why my
session_start event gets fired when I navigate in my site using
Response.redirect or window.location.href (no postbacks yet).

Interestingly, my session ID remians same but I have lost my session
variables. Further, after I have done atleast one postback, this problem goes
away.
I have session state enabled on IIS 5.0 running on a win2K professional
version and I am using IE 6.0 sp1. Cookes are enabled too.

any ideas?

Are you sure the Session is started? Repsonse.Redirect can skip over sending
headers that would init the session cookie in the browser.
