Cookie value set to 'deleted'

[YorkshireSteve]

Hi,

I have an issue with a high-traffic website we run which has a user login system.

The problem we're getting is for a small minority of users, the 'username' and 'password' fields are giving a value of 'deleted'. I've checked the ISPs to whom the IP addresses belong, and they're from AOL and NTL in the UK. This doesn't appear to be an issue with the ISP as I have other users who have ended up with these IP addresses and have been able to access the system fine.

I assume this is something to do with some internet security suite. Has anyone else come across this kind of problem?

Thanks,

Steve

Some internet security software blocks cookies even if the web browser allows them to be set. Norton is one programme that springs to mind.
