I am testing how a "keep me signed in" scenario works when the user
1. exits the restarts the browser
2. logs out then logs back into the OS
3. restarts the OS

This is case 2 (case 1 appears to work on Win7/EI9).

After logging in and checking keep me signed in, I exited IE9 (leaving tabs/pages as is and keeping history/data, etc).
I logged out the user then logged back in again.
I restart FF and get beta.myfavoritebooze.org with the saved login.
I restart Chrome and get beta.myfavoritebooze.org with the saved login.
I restart IE9, bring up beta.myfavoritebooze.org (or try to ) and get the following error:
A pop-up that says:
Message from webpage
login failure [object Ojbect]
and in OK button

I click the OK button
This leaves me with a "half-rendered" booze web page.
A refresh results in the same error.

An exit and restart of the browser brings up the same error page.

Even better, so as a workaround, I open diresworb.org and Sign Out of this current account.
Now, when I refresh beta.myfavoritebooze.org, I get an Application Error:

An error occurred in the application and your page could not be served. Please try again in a few moments.
If you are the application owner, check your logs for details.
