Session State error with Google Analytics for EPiServer 7

We are using the beta version of the GA plugin and receive the following error due to none serializable members

I beleive that this is thrown because we are using MSSQL to save session state and it requires members to be serializable.

Does anyone know how to overcome this issue?

Thanks

We are using state server on the load balanced environment. I would like to know how to overcome this issue too.

Anyone yet ?

I had to change the affinity on the load balancer to 'Single' and removed the session state line from the web.config to make it all work again.

This is not ideal, but hey, it works.
