I'm having the same issue here on my work PC.  I'm not sure it's related to 
ColdFusion - I'd not actually heard of CF before reading this thread and I 
doubt I have it on this computer.

I've noticed the problem occur with several webapps, including the application 
produced by my company, the time tracking app we use (Replicon TimeSheet), and 
my personal webmail (Horde).

If I log into any one of these, it works as normal until a pop-up (or a second 
browser tab!) is *closed*.  As long as the pop-up or tab stays open, I keep my 
session in the app.  After the close, I'm logged out.  This is only happening 
on my PC, no one else in the office has reported any problems, and the same 
sequence of events which repeatedly logs me out on this PC has no effect on at 
least 3 other machines in the office.  It just started doing this a few weeks 
ago.

Interestingly, if I clear the cache of the server on which our company's app is 
located, the problem no longer occurs for an as-yet-undetermined amount of time 
(at least a day).  Clearing the cache and/or deleting cookies on my personal 
machine seems to have no effect.

I don't have a technical background, but if my situation can help anyone, just 
let me know what I can do to help.
