Jeremy,

Thanks for writing back, I really appreciate it.

We are indeed using IE6; however, I don't believe that this is the 
problem.  I cleared out all cookies and temporary files, then made sure the 
"allow session cookies" checkbox was checked.  I got the same problem.  I 
also have the system set to prompt me whenever the application requests the 
setting of a cookie, and I explicitly allow each cookie to be set by our 
website.

Also, this problem didn't show up *until* a user's cookies were deleted in 
the first place.  Prior to that, the site was working just fine.
