Hi there!

I'm having problems with a "fusebox" application that requires unique 
identification for each client connected. At the moment it appears that users 
are able to bookmark the applications full URL including the CFID and CFTOKEN - 
essentially hijacking the settings assigned to a previous client. Not good.

To prevent this occurring what wouyld be the best solution?

I've considered this:

1. Embedding the main content of the site in a frame that would prevent a user 
from bookmarking the site with the CFID/CFTOKEN variables embedded. This would 
force CF to either identify a revisiting client or assign a new CFID/CFTOKEN 
value. This would also prevent a user from "changing" the CFID/CFTOKEN values.

2. Somehow dumping the CFID/CFTOKEN and assigning a new one if it already 
exists. The values are being stored in a datasource.

Any other ideas? I need to sort this out by Monday at the earliest.

Thanks in advance!

Regards,
