I am now testing this as a solution

"Using .htaccess often, you need to put the following two lines in the
..htaccess file, if your host is using PHP as an Apache module:

php_value session.use_only_cookies 1
php_value session.use_trans_sid 0 "

The downside is my site now only functions when user has cookies
enabled, and I am still not sure whethers this will do the trick.
