We develop web-applications where we use the window.open method to open a
new window.
We also use cookies to record the users session.
Normally the window.open method uses the same cookie as the window.opener.

But now we see on more and more users that the opened window doesn't use the
same cookie(s), is this turned off in XP SP2 ???
 
We also have another web-application:
The session of a user is stored in a cookie. after half an hour if the user
doesn't do anything a pop-up will be shown where the user will be asked to
login again.
After the user has logged in the session is stored in a cookie (on the
opened window) and the window will then be closed.
Usually the cookie will also be updated on the window.opener.
But we also see that this doesn't happen on some users.
