Ding!
   
  Thanks to all who repsonded. I had already implemented all that everyone else 
had suggested, but the one item I overlooked was resetting the path in the 
remove method of my cookie class to match when it was created.
   
  Thanks you for making my friday A LOT brighter!

Did you make sure the cookie you reset is using the correct path? The 
path has to match, not only the domain.
