Ive put firefox on now and thats alright but out of interest can't ie7/or 8 be set to do the same.

In IE7 & IE8, go to:

Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Advanced -> Tick Override automatic cookie handling

Allow First-party cookies and block Third-party cookies. First-party cookies are set by the web site you are actually visiting and some won't work without cookies enabled. Third-party cookies are set by advertisers etc on that web site, these are the ones you particularly don't want.
