Hi,

I'm having MAJOR problems expiring my cookies. When a user logs on to our site cookies are created like below:
response.cookies("htc")("UID")=4
response.cookies("htc").expires = DateAdd("h",4,Now())

When the user tries to log out BEFORE the 4 hours is up, I try to re-set the cookie expiration, but it doesn't work. Cookie still has the expiration date of 4 hours in the future.

response.cookies("htc").expires = Date - 1000

Why is this?
