Well, it can, and it does. I guess it's all in how you use it. If my session id is "abcd", then when I log out, your program should erase all of the data in the session and forget that it ever knew about a session called "abcd". That way, even if I log in with the same session (since the cookie wasn't deleted, probably, which is probably the cause of this whole problem), then I will be a new user and not related to the old user/session in any matter. > p.s.

Do I have to manually put it in the To box each time? Yeah, the topic of discussion quite a bit in the past few days.
