If AutoReset is false, the Start method must be called in order to start the count again. <br> <br>Since BuggyHandler didn't call Start until after its 7-seconds work, it shouldn't have received another callback until (7 + 4) 13 seconds later.<div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=582527" width="1" height="1">
