I have tried loading properties in the viewstate but that doesn't work. (the control is rebuilt on each page, no viewstate)

Yeah, you're going to run into that problem anytime you navigate since, like you're seeing, it's rebuilding the page when you navigate. You could have your main page open another pop-up window that has the timer on it - it will stay on the same page even as you navigate through your main site. The other thing you could do is use frames - hide the frame that contains the timer.
