We agree on that. I do need to fix it. I will go through the article step-by-step. Probably tomorrow; my head is spinning :)
Thank you very much.

>Clearly, WAuth is not working in your app - that needs to be fixed. You need to get HttpContext.Current.Request.IsAuthenticated to be True.

Specifically, if your app previously did not use WAuth you might have to reconfigure/rebuild it as described (e.g. step 9) - it looks like just adding the switch in web.config is not enough (?)
