It also appears to be having a strange effect on Firefox. I can't submit a bug report or open a link from Thunderbird while Firefox is running, and every time I restart Firefox it 'loses' my cookies on sites, including this one.
I haven't changed any cookie settings, and I can see that they're all there.
