Forget CF for a moment and just examine the headers that come back (you can
use a tool like HTTPWatch, the Developer's Toolbar or Fiddler (google will
help you find them: just search for the names with "http").

The session is linked to the browser either through a token passed on the
URL or, the default, via a Cookie.  Look for the value/existence of these in
the HTTP headers before and after you lose your session.  If they're not
changed you need to look to CF, if they are changed you need to focus on the
browser.

The latter is pretty likely however: all sorts of things can mess with HTTP
headers.  Firewalls, spyware scanners, network appliances, etc.
