And switch to MySQL while you're at it. mSQL is not much maintained, last I
heard. You'll probably be able to do a global search&replace of msql_ for
mysql_ and you're done.

"time()+1500" is pretty much going to end up being 0 by the time it gets to
the cookie -- So you were using session cookies all this time, and they died
as soon as you quit your browser.
You want time()+1500 without the quotes -- It's a calculation, not a string.
Also, the quotes on $vin are gratuitous -- They don't really hurt anything,
but they're pretty pointless.

I reckon those might have worked until the New Year, if you got all the
characters right...
