strange behaviour of log in session

[gengen]

site: www.seetang.com

testing account

usr name: [email protected]

pwd: testing

 

steps to recreate the problem:

1. login using the testing account

2. click the "Top" link of the "Top >> Catalog"

3. click the "Catalog" link of the "Top >> Catalog", (or click the "test" catalog)

 

at step 3, I am shown as not logged in, the cart is empty

 

4. click the "Top" again

 

I am shown as logged in again,

 

then go back to step 3, i am shown as not logged in....

 

anyone can help here? thanks in advance
