    Hello,

    I have created an MFC application (VC6) that opens multiple browser (IE6)
    windows (CHtmlView) - each in its own UI thread. I can navigate each to a
    different site concurrently, etc. So far so good.

    Question: Is it theoretically possible to navigate each browser to the same
    site, perform a login into some account (perhaps to different accounts), and
    maintain completely independent sessions, cookies, etc.

    >From what I gather since sessions, cookies, etc are maintained only at the
    top process level my multiple thread approach can never be made to work in
    this scenario. Is launching multiple "full scale" processes the only way to
    accomplish such session independence? Would using WinInet instead of a
    browser work?

    Thanks for you input,

    Mike
