If your hookup has alternating proxy hookups, then it's definitely causing a problem, similiar to what AOL is doing. Also, if your security settings are not allowing a session cookie to be saved on your computer, that'll do it.

Internet Explorer (version 6.0)
From the Menu Bar select Tools, Internet Options …
Select the Privacy Tab
Pull the slider down to Medium
Click OK

I have IE on my work computer. My settings are already at Medium. Now what do I do?

What are first party and third party cookies? Which do I need to be able to accept?
