I am trying to place a new DLL in the GAC. When compiling my .NET project with takes precedence the bin directory or the GAC. I have change the dll in my application. I have verified the properties and it shows that I am referencing the correct version. I have the local copy set to true. But after compiling the new dll is not the open being accessed.
I have restarted IIS, heck I have rebooted the server. I have removed every copy of the old DLL I can find on the server. When I have tried to run the gacutil /u, but it tells my 0 dll's have been uninstalled. I have tried to delete the DLL from the GAC directly and I get that the dll is in use.

How can I tell what is using it?
Which takes precedence the dll in by bin directory within the project or the GAC? It seems like the GAC, but I can't seem to get the old copy out. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
