Cookies being reset or disappearing mysteriously

My website uses cookies to persist a certain amount of data on the
client. However, occasionally the cookies will disappear or be set to
an empty string for no discernable reason. It does not happen in our
development environment at all, but does happen in our production
environment. We looked at all the likely settings and they were
identical on both the production and live servers.

We set the cookie domain properly and the cookie path.

Has anyone seen similar behavior? And if so, what did you do about it?
What IIS settings should I be looking at? Could it be a service pack
that was installed on one machine but not another? Any ideas, thoughts
or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks for any help!
