Adrian: I posted to CF-Talk several times yesterday (with no useful results) with a similar problem regarding client vars. We are now re-engineering to write cookies instead. I had posted a notice from MM about <cflocation addtoken="yes"> incrementing CFID. Look at your CFID table; we had new rows being written for each write to the client state, with incremented CFIDs. We changed to "addtoken=no" and all of a sudden only one user could write to the database at all. We tried, as you have, to find a common denominator to explain the inconsistent behavior among 5 machines; browser versions, os versions, etc. After much trial and error, I uninstalled CFMX, reinstalled, and are now using cookies instead. Hope you have better luck than us; like I said, take a look at your db and you may see the same symptoms.
