title: PHP Sessions/cookies not storing correctly when using IE6/IE7
body: <p>We have a local intranet site that everyone on the network uses.  Maybe 5% (or even less) of the users that use the site have problems where the session isn't stored properly.</p>
  
  <p>I've tried defining a path manually (<code>C:/Coookieess</code>) and checking to see what's going on.  Whereas most users' sessions are created and remain just fine, on the affected machines it seems that it either forgets the cookies are there or it can't read them, and then goes on to create a new cookie almost every time a page is refreshed.</p>
  
  <p>Things to note are...</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>it only affects &lt;5% of users </li>
  <li>it only happens when using IE</li>
  <li>it happens to those users regardless of what machine theyre using</li>
  <li>it only happens with Windows XP or Vista - Windows 2000 works fine!</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I've tried messing with the security settings in IE too, changing the cookie security to allow all cookies/sessions, but no luck on that either unfortunately :(</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be amazing.  I'm really stuck on this.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
