Your 'current visit' lasts until you either log out, or your session expires, I think that is 15 minutes after last activity. So if you go to another site for 15 minutes, any posts, read or unread, that were in the new posts list last time, will have gone.
If you return before the 15 minutes is up, they'll all still be there.

Incidentally you can wipe the slate, it must re-write the cookie or something, by marking the forums read.
