RE: What conditions would cause a new jsessionid to be assigned to a user session?

Jason, Not sure if you saw my reply to the now somewhat out of control thread on CFC locking, so here it is again: I have seen a problem where a proxy cache was mixing up user's sessions so they would actually see each other's data. The actual mechanism was that the proxy would return the cookie

Re: What conditions would cause a new jsessionid to be assigned to a user session?

Of the 360 timeouts that have happened during the last few weeks there are 99 ip addresses. A few of them have this happen moreso than others. Browser is IE most of the time, version 6 I believe. I never thought of the spyware blocker suggestion, might be a possibility... We've discussed p
