That's not exactly correct. The CFID and CFTOKEN cookies, by default, are
essentially "permanent" cookies, with an expiration date twenty years or so
from now.

> </cfif>
This will overwrite the cookies set by CF with your own "session" cookies,
which will be discarded by the browser when it's closed. However, it's worth
noting that this will rewrite the cookies on every page request, which isn't
really necessary. You can simply write them once, by setting the
SETCLIENTCOOKIE attribute of CFAPPLICATION to "false" or "no", and then
creating your own CFID and CFTOKEN "session" cookies with the appropriate
CFID and CFTOKEN values from the Client or Session scope.
