Re: Definition of a session (a browser perspective)

Are you dealing with multiple browser processes or just multiple browser 
windows onto the same browser process?

On my Win2k system, every time I hit the launch icon for IE, it launches a 
new IE process (wrong, in my opinion). But every time I hit the Moz launch 
icon it opens a new window for a single already running Moz process (right, 
in my opinion). This may be related to Mozilla "quickstart" functionality.
