Thanks Chris Norloff and Jeff Beer! Looks like we have this one resolved. But, there is still a question. The problem was that the setClientCookies parameter of the <cfapplication> tags where unintenionally set to "no". The question then - is why did many clients pass the session.cfid and session.cftoken WITHOUT using cookies or URL variables??? Is this not incorrect behavior? With that parameter set shouldn't all users have failed? If anybody has any insight into this, I would love to hear it.
Thanks again.

After adding addToken="no" to all our <cflocation> tags and removing unnecessary sessionmanagement="yes" and sessiontimeout parameters from the <cfapplication> tag in the root Application.cfm file, more useres where able to correctly use the application. But continued use and testing have determined that some clients are still experiencing the problem. To summerize the problem again. We have a training application that is supposed to time out after 15 minutes of inactivity. We are using a variable SESSION.registered set to time out in 15 minutes to track this. Then each template through Application.cfm in the training application checks to make sure that this variable exists before displaying the page. But the session is not persisting for some users. For some reason, new CFID and CFTOKENS are being generated by every HTTP request. Thus SESSION.registered keeps disappearing by the next page and the user is put into an endless loop. Please refer to the following link to see the previous topic on this problem.
