Cookies totally work in IE5. I've doing pretty much exactly what your code
fragment does in Ie5 using Weblogic 5.1 and it works fine. The only
difference is that I've been using the method HttpSession.setAttribute()
instead of the depreciated HttpSession.setValue() that you are using. Just
make sure you have cookies turned on in Ie5.  Check that they're turned on
under Tools->Internet Options->Security.
