I have a aspx web application that updates or adds files in a database. The clients access through the browser and one of the requirements is that they can start the update and be able to close the browser while the update continues. It appears to run for a little bit after I close the browser but then it stops. How can you keep the application running for asp.net?

That’s something you could very well solve with WF (Workflow Foundation). Create a workflow for the task that should survive closing the browser. Workflows have their own threads and livecycles separate from ASP.NET.
