I have a similar issue, and it always seems to be the people who are
incapable of responding to requests for more info about their browser
version etc...
The teeny tiny percentage who can tell me what browser version they
have, it works just fine.
My current theories include:
Their cookies aren't really "on", they just think they are, and once
they start digging, they solve it.
Some versions of IE refuse cookies in some security settings unless
you have the stupid P3P headers.
They were not paying attention when the web page told them that
CAPITALIZATION matters for their password.
I have resorted to telling the users to just switch browsers, which is
not what I'd like to do, but I can never seem to find the time to
track this down.
Good luck!
