I believe the problem that Will has stated has been fixed with 3.2.2 (I dont think it was ever an issue with the 4 codebase).  The problem was in the Components\Shared\ClientAPI.vb file.  This line of code

Dim objModuleVisible As HttpCookie = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Cookies("_Module" & intModuleId.ToString & "_Visible")

Needed to be changed to

Dim objModuleVisible As HttpCookie = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies("_Module" & intModuleId.ToString & "_Visible")

If you are using 3.2.2 or 4.x I believe your issue is with something else...

Jon,

If you are going to pop in here and summarily dismiss other's hypothesis as to the cause of the authentication issue in 4.x, then you should offer either another hypothesis as to why this is occuring.  What other explanation could account for the loss of authentication that occurs only with IE and not FireFox?

I don't know about that.  At least we know that the guy whos most likely to be able to find the answer if it's in the DNN code is at least looking at this tread now.  He also gave people a heads up that it wasn't the issue they were thinking it might be, to time won't be spent going down the wrong path. 

Jon isn't the one you want to alienate with this problem, as he's in the best position to be ablae to help find an answer to our problems.

I am simply trying to relay the facts concerning the cookie issue with the min/max.  As to what other explanation could account for the loss of authentication I can offer another hypothesis, though it would not be a IE specific issue.  Anytime the web.config file is touched it will cause the authentication to be reset.  The most common reason for this (I find) is that virus software is scanning the file.  See Scott's blog entry for details on detemining if this is the cause.

From the sounds of most peoples posts is that they cannot reliably reproduce the behavior. (i.e. x+y=z).  I just registered on Adeian's site and will see if I can reproduce the issue.

Jon,

I'll give you any permissions you need on my site.  I've found the most reliable way to reproduce the problem on my site is to log on from the home page, go to the blog page, and post a new entry in the blog.  I lose authentication 90% of the time on the first log in.
