The way your domain masking works is that a frameset is set up at the masking URL (stressrelief.co.nr), and your actual site is placed inside a frame. In that case, apparently IE doesn't pass the session cookie back to your application. See http://adamyoung.net/IE-Blocking-iFrame-Cookies.
It's probably not a good idea to use domain masking anyway (the address bar won't show any of your internal URLs -- nothing can be bookmarked). Just set up the DNS for your domain to point to your server. Anthony On Wednesday, October 26, 2011 6:35:24 PM UTC-4, horridohobbyist wrote: > > Okay, I've made it easier to investigate.
