Can you post your web.config? Also, what session backend are you using?

Is this a clustered environment? If so, make sure the same setting is  
on all the machines in the cluster.

If this is a production environment, it's likely that IIS is  
configured to not restart when web.config changes. Try restarting IIS.

Cheers,
Dan
