[Zope] IE 5.5+ and login problems

Hi,

I am using a custom user folder that authenticates users off a mysql db 
and is essentially a modified version of the mysqluserfolder product to 
allow some custom functionality that we needed. It also uses the 
CookieCrumbler product to provide login forms.

The problem we are facing seems to manifest itself only in the IE 5.5+ 
browsers. We have been unable to reproduce it on Netscape or Mozilla or 
Opera.

Evidently if a user logs in and logs out quickly and repeatedly, one out 
of four times the login fails even if the password is correct. The next 
time around though it the login attempt gets through. It happens quite 
randomly but about 25% of the time, only when a user logs in and logs 
out and logs back in again within a relatively short interval.

Has anobody else experienced this problem??
Are there any workarounds at all??

TIA
AM
