One way around it could be to add each user to an application scoped
structure which is also check at the same time as their login.  If they
are present in the application structure then let them in.  That way it
shouldn't matter how they open IE. Just make sure to delete them from
the app structure when they logout of when their session times out (not
sure how to achieve this last bit?!!)

I may be way off though.
