Then it depends how the two browsers proceed from there and how they
store their cookies.  IE will run a second iexplore.exe process, which
has its own set of memory-resident cookies.

If you create the new window from each browser's File tab rather than
launching a new process, you should see the session being maintained.

Note that this is a browser issue, not a Tomcat issue, so I am marking
the subject as off-topic for a Tomcat list.

Firefox on most environments I've seen search out a previously running 
instance and calls a new window on it when you attempt to open a new 
instance.  IE just creates a new instance.  Not sure what you want for a 
"solution" here -- every IE window getting the same session regardless 
of launch method?

Thank you,

yes I imagined I was a browser issue, but I hope someone would give me a 
solution.

Thank you very much.
