Another good suggestion, but no dice. Doublechecked the database (client
variables are stored in MSSQL via ODBC) and only one application name. I
*did* notice that many users have multiple clientId values (I searched
through the CDATA.data field for usernames to find dupes). These map fairly
well to http vs https logins and I validated the same thing from a test
server -- I can watch the cfid change when I login http and login https from
the same browser on the same machine.

So I'm rewriting the security system now :)
