Session cookie not expiring...?

me
If I start a session on our web app then close all browsers, I expect that
the session cookie would be deleted and that the session itself would exist
until it expired. I then start a new instance of the browser expecting to
get a new session id and a new session, but instead I reconnect to the
unexpired session. Does anyone know why the session cookie is persisting
despite the closure of all the IE windows?

Thanks,
scott.

I'd like to be able to kill the cookie and do a...

Hello I need people to be able to complete long text blocks in my cms before their session times out.
