Hi, Don't know about FireFox, but for IE the way you start it makes a difference.
If you start a new IE window using the File menu, and then "new"->"window", or just CTRL+N, the new IE window will share any sessions with the one you're opening it from. Of you start a new IE window from your desktop or any other shortcut, the new window will start new session.
