I am currently on a project where we decided to use Cookies between post backs (scroll bar positions, list of expanded items). This works great if you hit the site internally, however we have a need to use ISA for remote access. When we get to the remote station we are finding that these cookies are not being persisted between post backs. We have enabled “persistent cookies” on the ISA server which prevents prompting when opening documents, but doesn’t solve our other cookie issues. We are using MOSS 2007 SP1 and ISA 2007 running on Standard Server 2003 R2 SP2. Thanks for the help in advance.
 
We solved the issue. I was writing a cookie and the cookie was a list of items separated with commas. ISA will pull out all commas and semicolons to parse out authentication information then try to rebuild the cookie. We changed our delimiter to be a carat '^' and this solved it. There is also a hot fix on MSDN in this article:
