I'm trying to run WIF Relying Party application on a shared host. They will not set the IIS Setting LoadUserProfile to true and as such I'm getting the following error:

Message: The data protection operation was unsuccessful. This may have been caused by not having the user profile loaded for the current thread's user context, which may be the case when the thread is impersonating. ExceptionStackTrace: at System.Security.Cryptography.ProtectedData.Protect(Byte[] userData, Byte[] optionalEntropy, DataProtectionScope scope) at Microsoft.IdentityModel.Web.ProtectedDataCookieTransform.Encode(Byte[] value)

Is there anyway around this?
