Cannot change IIS 7.5 ASP Classic timeout after IIS error

I'm working on a problem with timeouts with an ASP Classic site under IIS 7.5 on Win2008R2. I set the time-out to 1 minute so that I could test and everything was working fine. I tried to set it to 5 seconds to speed up testing, but received an error saying time-out cannot be less than 1 minute, and the time-out change was canceled.

Now IIS manager says the timeout is 1 minutes, but Session says it's 20 minutes. Nothing i do will change the timeout that is in Session. I've changed the time-out and saved it, tried restarting IIS, removed the application from IIS and added it back, but the timeout is still 20 minutes.

Does anyone know how I can reset this timeout?

Edit: I've checked applicationHost.config and it looks OK.

<location path="Default Web Site/CostBrad">
    <system.webServer>
        <asp scriptErrorSentToBrowser="true">
            <session timeout="00:01:00" />
        </asp>
        <security>
            <authentication>
                <anonymousAuthentication enabled="false" />
                <windowsAuthentication enabled="true" />
            </authentication>
        </security>
    </system.webServer>
</location>

You might be able to fix any "bad" data in IIS's store by editing the applicationHost.config file directly. - vcsjones
Thx vcsJones, but i tried that. this is in applicationHost.config: <location path="Default Web Site/CostBrad"> <system.webServer> <asp scriptErrorSentToBrowser="true"> <session timeout="00:01:00" /> </asp> <security> <authentication> <anonymousAuthentication enabled="false" /> <windowsAuthentication enabled="true" /> </authentication> </security> </system.webServer> </location> - Brad Irby
