Hi,

I don't know if this is appropiate newsgroup for this question, please
tell me if this is not.

I use CGI.pm's cookie to store the session information in user's
browser. I received some complaints from user that they are logging into
another person's account. Most of them are behind company's firewall. So
I think maybe they hit the cache results. The URL is the same for
everyone, it looks like: http://domain.com/home.pl.

Is this possible? Anyone has same experience? Please advise. Thank you
very much.
