Hi Friends,

With Siebel CRM recently releasing IE8 compatibility, one common issue faced on day one is
"SBL-UIF-00296: You already have a web browser accessing the current web session. Multiple browsers are not allowed to share the same web session"

No matter what you do, you are not able to open multiple Siebel instances in IE8!
Well, those who are new to IE8, there seems to be a session replication builtin which causes to replicate the session in the multiple instances you open causing Siebel to give the error.

The correct way to resolve this is to start a new IE8 Siebel Session using
a) File -> New Session or  [From IE8 UI]
b) iexplore.exe -nomerge   [Command line -nomerge option]

This way we explicitly instruct IE8 not to replicate session allowing us to open multiple Siebel instances.
Please remember that never open multiple Siebel instances in different IE Tabs! It is not supported and can cause a big issue with your data.


Hope this tip helps :-)
