RE: Maintain Session State Across Domains

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

To my knowledge, this should not be an issue unless you are linking
application pages accross non-secure (port 80) and secure (port 443) ports on
your webserver. If you are linking between secure and non-secure, the session
var's will not be maintained.

For example, are you collection the session vars on a secure page, directing
to PayPal, and having PayPal redirect to a non-secure page?

Hope this helps... Rich
