To expand on that: when you open your new IE window by choosing File->New Window in your existing IE window, the same cookie store is used for the new IE window. If you open it any other way (Start Menu, Quick Launch, etc.) the process is separate and you have a new cookie store.
Firefox processes all share the same cookie store, so this is not a problem.

Why? Comparing to IE,when I use Mozilla Firefox brower.No matter I visit the two apps in the same window or in two different browser windows ,I only need to enter username/password once. it confusing me.Does it because cas use session mechanism(I must not sure cas use cookie or session)? and the above tow browsers have different implementation to support session?Is cas designed to let a user access to all casenable applications if the applicaions themself don't have authority mechanism? can anyone explain it to me? thank you. qingzhao ________________________________ 雅虎邮箱，您的终生邮箱！ <http://cn.mail.yahoo.com/> _______________________________________________ Yale CAS mailing list [email protected] http://tp.its.yale.edu/mailman/listinfo/cas
