Well, it seems that Internet Explorer doesn't work that way.
Here are the steps:
I have opened a window with the main page of the site.
No cookie file was created.
I have logged on.
No cookie file was created, even though it was sent, and the login was
successful.
I have opened another window with the same main URL.
It asked again for the username and the password, so the session was not
available to the second window.
I have logged on using another username.
No session file was created but the login was successful this time also.

Hi,
Maybe I didn't understand well the question, but if the user wants to
create a session that works only in a certain window, but doesn't work in
the other windows, a simple cookie can be used if its expiry date is set
to 0.
This way the cookie won't be saved, but it will be memorised by the
current window of the browser, and if the browser window is closed, the
session ID is lost, and the user must log in again for creating another
session.
Same thing if he wants to use another window.
Isn't this what is needed?

No, setting it to 0 just ensures that when the *browser* is closed the
cookie is removed. A cookie set in one window is available to all windows
of that browser and all windows/tabs have the same cookie (and hence the
same session).
