That's what I though, but actually, closing my browser after I start a session on the site keeps the session when I reopen it. Even keeping the browser open and opening a totally browser (not a tab) keeps the session.

Yep. Oh well. The first thing you learn in security is that you can never have a 100% secure site. The only thing you can do is make it as hard as possible to be hacked Confusedhut:
