Hi Taco,

The Bill is rubbish these days, going to give it a miss from now on....

IE6 has some funny attributes but I cannot reproduce this one and every other browser 
behaves, AFAIK, properly in the sense that a new browser instance is independent of 
any previous one. I have just run some tests on the demo site of our UserMinder code 
and it behaves as expected, a new browser instance is not connected to a previous 
instance.

UserMinder is based on a single cookie so is a good test of what is going on. To test 
the session thing go to
 http://spooky.microset.com.au/userMinderDemo/index.cfm
and walk thought the descriptive text until you get the, empty, dump of the session 
variables. Then do a ^n to get a new window in the same browser instance and try the 
"view problems" page and the one problem currently there (which is currently in a test 
mode for a client and not showing the race problem as it normally does). Run the 
problem to set a few session variables and then go back to the first window and 
refresh the session dump age and you should see the two current session variables, the 
session, cookie, is common across the two windows.

Now open a new browser instance (click the icon, etc) and walk through the 
descriptions again and the session dump page comes up empty, no session variables.... 
A different cookie and session.
