We have a very strange problem that I have not been able to track down. We have a simple cookie being set so people don't have to
login to our site everday. However, cookies keep vanishing after a day or two and I havn't been able to work it out.

I can actually see the cookie in my "Cookies" folder, however it has a [2] at the end, ie. daniel@www.yoursite.com[2], when I log
into the site again, it creates daniel@www.yoursite.com[1]

Server : Win2k, IIS5 with latest patches etc
Clinet : WinXP, IE6, Set to medium security

Things I have tried/checked;

1) Made sure the expires date is set correctly.

Response.Cookies("S" & ProdID).Expires = DateAdd("Y", 1, Now)

2) Setup a full P3P policy and validated with the w3c validator

3) Verified that IE6 is accepting the cookie

4) Read some rumour on the net that setting the Expires statement last will fix the disappearing cookie problem, so did it

any help would be appreciated, (just fix my address if replying via email)

Daniel.

Response.Cookies("S" & ProdID).Expires = DateAdd("Y", 1, Now)
this script add one year before it expire
try if you want your cookie to stay alive only one day
Response.Cookies("S" & ProdID).Expires = DateAdd("D", 1, Now)
