Bane of my existence, well at least for today

There are some days where I just want to pummel anything that is Microsoft related into little pulpy bits.

IE6, the ever so wonderful software has decided that it is not going to accept cookies. Now it isn't doing this as a general blanket statement rule, in which nothing is being let through. Nope, it had decided to be a finicky, fastidious thing letting some certifications/cookies in while blatantly refusing others. There are no indications as to why the little scamp has decided that this was the weekend it was going to be difficult and it has given no reason or forewarning as to why it won't let the cookies through. Does anyone have any ideas as to what may be the cause?

In parting all I have to add is: Damn you Mr. Gates! Damn YOU!

Addendum: Sill no luck. We've tried a re-install, an over install. I am on the verge of attempting a complete over hall of my computer. Feck! Who said that you could choose which cookies/certificates that would be allowed on my computer. Who gave you the right to decide which sites I could access or not. Who said you could do that with out asking me for consent?!? Next time you design a web browser would you be so kind as to allow the user the option of determining what they would like to do with their software? Perhaps a little window indicating that the sight may not be secure, with a little ok button that they could depress if they wanted to continue on. Would that be such a difficult request? No?!? I didn't think so!
