and you need this fixed why? The search results from say Google depend on a lot of factors. Too many to go into here. Probably nothing you can do about it.

because it is a search in our booking engine system. IF we sign in with the same ID the results shouldn't very depending on which computer we are using.

search engines are engineered to "profile the user" so what you do affects the results, otherwise use Copernic, it's more relative to the search words and not user preferrances

travel search systems could also depend on many factors, but a good system can help you a lot. Try this: http://t4w.com.br/site/pagina/t4wturgw.aspx (http://translate.google.com.br/translate?u=http://t4w.com.br/site/pagina/t4wturgw.aspx&sl=pt&tl=en&hl=pt-BR&ie=UTF-8)
