I'm sure it's as easy as invalidating ...

At the moment I go to the default. If the user is already logged in or not, there I do a redirect to their own page. This can't be the correct way! Can ...
We have a web application and it uses System.Web.UI.Page.User.Identity to determine who the current user is. We are experiencing an intermittent problem, where a user is not recognized (their identity is blank or empty).
