Have you tried going to tools>internet options>privacy and at the bottom under web sites click on the edit button,and then you can see if your cookies are being blocked,if so click on the allow button ,you can choose all or pick the ones you want.

You might need to run a repair of IE and depending on you OS this will differ on how to perform the repair. For XP go here any other OS you should be able to run the repair from the add/remove applet in control panel.

Do you have any software running that maybe clears out your cookies upon restart?

Check your IE settings carefully - I think IE6 added the ability to dump cookies on exit.

Try and rule security setting out. Put them on Low, or Custom, and see if it still rejects cookies, if it does, then its bound to be something causing a conflict...
