Odd cookie problems with Windows 2000

I've got a site I've built with php. Everything works fine except for a few windows 2000 machines that try to use it. I've been trying to track it down and it seems that these certain machines aren't storing my cookie values. I've matched all the security settings and everything with other win2000 machines and it still doesn't work.

I've checked 9 different win2000 machines. 4 of them don't work.. 3 of them have the latest updates for windows and IE. The other one has IE 5 and actually give an error saying that the page cannot be refreshed. When upgraded, it does the same as the other 3. You enter the name and password and all it will do is reload the page (however, it does submit because if you give a bad name and password, it will tell you). The working machines all have the latest service packs and IE.

Anybody ever heard of something like this? And yes, its only win 2000 that doesn't work. I've tested 8 other machines with no problems, win 98 and win XP.

Are you using any javascript? If so, yes I've heard of such behavior... if not, then no I haven't.

If you are, I'd suggest checking your page with a Mozilla browser while watching the javascript console. If not, I hope someone else can offer some assistance.

Yes, I'm using javascript to submit. I'm calling a js function when my submit image is clicked or when enter is pressed. All the function does is a simple document.myform.submit() call. I'll see if I can track anything down with mozilla. Any info is appreciated.

Thanks!
