Thank you Curt for the fast reply !!
Yes it is 2003. I had already restarted the site (no change), but
restarting the App Pool solved the problem !!
The strange part is that I had been merrily just updating the dll for the
past 2 months and never had this problem. I used it as a brag point to my
client on how fast I could change the site by just copying the dll - now it
seems I'll have to be logged on to the Server and have the IIS management
console open too in case I have to restart the App Pool too.
Oh well, you have saved my sanity - for the time being at least ;>)
Thanks again!

I have been developing an ASP.NET web and loved the fact that deployment
of code changes seemed simple in that all I did was replace the
bin/myApp.dll and the changes were immediately available.
All of a sudden, today the dll changes do not appear to work. I even
deleted the dll from the bin folder and the site still renders with the
old dll code. Thus it appears the dll is in memory and does not reload
itself as it seemed to do in the past. I cannot reboot the server since
there are other web sites running on it and the owners would not be happy
their sites crash just so I can force my site to refresh the dll.
I spent the last hour searching for a solution to this problem and could
not find any.
Thanks to anyone who can enlighten me on this perplexing issue.

restart that individual site, or if it's 2003 the app pool.
