Can't access Admin Panel from IE

Anyone ever experienced this... I've built a site using CMS 1.0.2. It looks great in IE and Firefox, but I can't login to the Admin Panel from IE. Login works fine from FF. Trying to login from IE just returns me to the login prompt. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

P.S. GREAT job on CMS Made Simple! I've been out of the loop for a while, but it's looking absolutely fantastic. I'm building a couple sites with it now. Including a corporate site where I work (they're first taste of Open Source Software!).

most probably IE has some security settings that doesnt allow cookies (or its just being IE and just broken

I agree that IE is often broken, but this is wierd. Changing security settings to allow all cookies doesn't help any. BTW, this is IE version 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2.050301-1526. I tried a different flavor of IE6 on another box with the same results.

can you check that the cookie is created?

I do get an entry in the CMS Admin Log showing the login, but there's no cookie created. I've tried various settings related to cookies, including addng my CMS site to IE's Trusted Sites list. Still no luck. Thanks for the suggestions. Any more?

hmm, so either cmsms doesnt send the cookie (but it does work for other browsers) or IE doesnt take it (more probable
try this
09:37 he added that in htaccess
09:37 mod_gzip_item_exclude mime ^text/css
it disableds gzip packing from css files worked for someone
can you check your server logs if there's something strange or different when loggin in with IE versus FF
