This happened to me also, took me a long time to work out what was causing it. For me I noticed it only occured for IE 6 users. There is a new option in it that blocks certain cookies, goto TOOLS -> Internet Options -> Privacy Tab, change the slider to the bottom to accept all cookies and hopefully that should fix your problem!
