through some of the debug output that some of the problem users have sent.

This creates non-persistent CFID and CFTOKEN cookies; omitting the

I can't promise it will fix your problem, but I can't see how it would
break anything. (unless your site didn't render correctly in IE7 to
begin with)

The tag is in the HTML head, inserted via CFHTMLHEAD. is this what you mean?
(meta tags belong in the document head anyway, per HTML 4.01 standard...?)

In theory, you could use the native CF URLSessionFormat() function to
conditionally pass the CFID and CFToken values if the user's browser either

in Chapter 20 of CF8 WACK book I.
I have never tested this theory myself--ne
