if your using IE change the sess_cookie_name to cisession IE does not like the underscore
it converts it a hex 09

I don't use IE, I use Mozilla. Any way I take care of the visitor of my site, which I hope can be used by from every browser with no limitation. Any way so far I tested also on IE and it goes well.

Thank you
