Please give more information. Such as, what code are you using?

Cookies work perfectly in IE6.

i done very simple 1 at indexpage
setcookie("ecm",$username,time()+3600);

login page detect cookie
if(!isset($ecm))
{

after uninstall IE6 , is working.
i have try to change setting to accept cookie but still cannot IE6.

Run this, see what happens:

<?php
setcookie ("TestCookie", "It worked!");
echo($_COOKIE["TestCookie"]);
?>

After you go to the page, reload it. (Press Control+F5 in IE, since it might be caching.)

Not 100% sure of this but i'll pass it on anyway

Apparently IE6 will only accept cookies if you put the full cooki string in, that is setcookie(name,value,expiry,path,secure)

Whereare other browsers will let setcookie(name,value,expiry) work IE6 won't

As i said i'm not 100% sure about this.
