[thelist] ASP Limit Logins

[Mark A. MacInnes]

Hello,

I work for an information company that provides high-quality information 
to its subscribers. To get access to this information, they have to 
login. However, we have been experiencing some problems with subscribers 
sharing their details between colleagues so more than one person logs 
into the website using one account. We want to stop this and ensure that 
only one person uses the account at any one time. The account will be 
marked as Currently Active when someone has logged in and we will use a 
Cookie on the correctly logged in user's computer to ensure we don't 
tell the him. However, when that user stops using the site and doesn't 
log out properly, how is the best way to marke the account as Inactive. 
We can't wait for the cookie to die as that will stop the user from 
using another computer. Any suggestions?

By the way, the site runs on ASP with MS SQL.

Bye
Mark
