Description:
------------
Well, after all I don't know is this is a bug or not. Is just  a report or a problem I have with my PHP. The problem is that PHP store session vars automatically in a directory without any call or session work. I have PHP 5.1.2, Apache/2.0.55 (Win32) mod_ssl/2.0.49 OpenSSL/0.9.8a and Windows XP ServicePack 2 installed and configured. Few day ago I watch a strange behaviour in my PHP. The cause is that session vars stored by default in PHP install dir \ session_data are created withouth any call. This mean that I have not any browser open and I not working with PHP at this moment. I not know if the cause can be a bad Apache configuration or something like that.

Before all my apology if I not understand how to publish a valid bug. The problem is next: few days ago I have PHP 5.1.2, Apache/2.0.55 (Win32) mod_ssl/2.0.49 OpenSSL/0.9.8a and Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition. In this PHP works fine. Now I need to migrate my PC to a Windows XP SP2. I install PHP following the same procedure that I follow to install in Windows 2003. 

Now programming a web site that need to use SSL and I configure Apache to support it. In php.ini I not change anything, only uncommented some extensions needed: php_gd.dll, php_mysqli.dll (not include in PECL PHP5.1.2) if not downloaded recently from MySQL site.

When I navigate with Firefox browser in site one session var is created. But surprise every time I call a page from the same browser and same tab a new empty session is created.

I was believe that my application is wrong. So I check some concept for session in PHP Manual, but not the error is not my app.

Well, after that I close my browser and stay some minutes in sessiondata folder and I see that every "x" seconds a new empty session var is created.

So if I not have a browser open and I not navigate in site why this?

This is my php.ini session config:
[Session]
session.save_handler = files
session.use_cookies = 1
session.name = PHPSESSID
session.auto_start = 0
session.cookie_lifetime = 0
session.cookie_path = /
session.cookie_domain =
serializer of PHP.
session.serialize_handler = php
session.gc_probability = 1
session.gc_divisor     = 100
session.gc_maxlifetime = 1440
session.bug_compat_42 = 1
session.bug_compat_warn = 1
session.referer_check =
session.entropy_length = 0
session.entropy_file =
session.cache_limiter = nocache
session.cache_expire = 180
session.use_trans_sid = 0
session.hash_function = 0
session.hash_bits_per_character = 4
url_rewriter.tags = "a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=,fieldset="
session.save_path= D:\Server\PHP\sessiondata    ; argument passed to save_handler

So, waiting for yours
