multiple instances of w3wp.exe for same web page... 1

[incron]

Hey guys yesterday I placed this thread in svr 2003 exchange by mistake -


I setup my first dedicated server, and my first asp page. Whenever I go to the website (on a separate machine) and refresh the web page. An additional instance of w3wp.exe is created in Task Manager on the dedicated server. So if I click refresh five times on the website. 5 additional instances are created on the server. I know this because to date, I am the only one using the site. It's still under construction. Is there a setting in IIS somewhere that can stop this or something in the asp code I missed? I am running:

Also the CPU load jumps to 52% from zero


Server 2003 (latest updates and service packs) and IIS 6


can someone tell me how to take out the thread from the exchange forum please - thanks
