Typically web browsers will only hold one session per website. The reason is because if two people could be logged in at the same time, how does the browser know who is at the computer?

When you use a different browser it is using a totally different session and doesn't effect other browsers connections.

Your ISP has nothing to do with anything really. The only time this might be the case is if the website itself only allows one connection from your IP address (all computers in your house share the same public IP). This is pretty rare, at least with social media websites.

Everything stated above is correct. Different browsers run different sessions and have totally different storage locations for cache, history, cookies, etc.

why this happen what is responsible for this ?????????technical term for this??

There is no technical term for it. All the technical babble needed was already used in both mine and the previous posters responses.

please help geeks....

Missed that post before, but that's quite disrespectful. Yes I do consider myself a computer geek, but for you to just come here and call us geeks is very rude.

When you browse facebook, or any modern site, for that matter, it sends hidden data between any page. That data is literary carried away with every link you click. This data is stored in the browser, so if you have 2 diffrerent sets of hidden data like 1:user.x, 2:user.y, when opening a page, the browser can't really tell which set of data to use to configure the page for showing, and that's why they just eliminated the possibility of you ever doing that.
