this problem occours only whith a particular page.
after trying login I recieve the message: "...cannot set a cookie...". when
I set my computerclock one hour earlier (wrong time) I can enter.
with all other pages working with cookies, I don't have this problem.
cookies have a relationship with the time?
it's the problem of my browser or of the page that sends the cookie?

The problem may lie on the other end (i.e., the server the website is on)
but...

I have the correct time and time zone. I'm in rio de janeiro. we have the
time zone -3 but the actually "correct" time is -2. ok, I can manipulate the
time zone, then it works. but after the next restart I'll have the wrong
time because the server has a different time zone.
I can not understand why I have this problem only with one page. I'm working
with many pages from outside of brazil using cookies and there is no
problem.

Reset the correct time then set the correct time *zone*.
