This might be off topic but I like to share this with you all.

Today we experienced some strange behaviours with IE7, and not all 
versions of them, but only the ones running on M$ Vista.

IE7 was not accepting any $SESSION.

We experienced this using the sr_freecap and captcha extension, but it 
affects all use of $SESSION

After some long investigation we came to the conclusion that IE7 does 
not accept them when using numbers in the domain, in our case 
scream2007.nl. After changing the domain to one without any numbers 
everything was alright.

So if you experience this behaviour, do not try to debug the whole 
thing, look at http headers and all you can think about. Just think the 
way they did at M$ and think in numbers :-) (Although it happens with 
small numbers as well)
