I set the MembershipContext.AuthenticatedUser to the user who logs into my website. But when I come to check properties of this user (through MembershipContext.AuthenticatedUser.TryGetProperty("ClientID", out UserClientIDValue);), I see that AuthenticatedUser gets changes to anynonymous user by itself.

Please help, how to correctly set the currentUser.
