Session Variable problems

We have an ASP driven site that uses Session variables to authenticate,

like: Login -> Set session variable -> Display page based on session variable.

The problem is, some browsers at my client's company can't view the entire page because it seems to not be accepting or storing Session variables. In the below example, I can never see Portion A on my client's browser because the Session("Access") is always disabled:

<% If InStr(1, Session(&quot;Access&quot;), &quot;multiplex&quot;) > 0 Then %>
Display portion A.
<% End If %>

I've tried replicating this problem scenario on my browser, but I can't. Now I know Session variables are tied to cookies, so I went, in Internet Explorer, to Tools-> Options -> Privacy -> Block all Cookies. But I can *still* log in successfully.

So is this a browser problem or an IIS problem or a coding problem?

We are using IE 6 and our client uses IE 5 & 6.


Thanks for the help!
