Primarily the database serves the web server so it is always the same host.
The database may vary, but some more than others.  I feel confident that
some path through an ASP either crashes or the connection close command is
never reached or does not exist.   However, I would think that the timeout
would still kill those.... they are sleeping... for days.

BTW, I am running 2.23.32 on Win2K.

I have been trying to come up with an easy way to know which ASP has the
error in it.  Only thing I can think of is to create dozens of usernames and
use a different one in each file.... ick... that will take some time.
