ASP.NET: Form Authentication is not working with IE8

Question

Hello,

I just found out that my site authentication is not working in IE8. It works in FF, Chrome, Opera but not in IE8. I've deleted all the cookies and temporary files but no change. After a short research I found out that there is some problems with the cookies with IE8.

Look at this http://www.reachfarther.com/persistent_cookies_fail_in_ie8.html

Here is my web.config

    <authentication mode="Forms">
        <forms defaultUrl="~/Default.aspx" loginUrl="~/Login.aspx" domain="ivan_g" name=".MY_WEB_AUTH_COOKIE" cookieless="UseCookies" slidingExpiration="true" timeout="10" protection="All"></forms>
    </authentication>

    <httpCookies domain="ivan_g" />

I want to run the site from my PC at the office so my domain is ivan_g I think. This is the Url:

http://ivan_g/devsite/Login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2fdevsite%2fDefault.aspx

Can u help me with that?

I forgot to say that this form authentication problem happens only when I deploy on IIS (My OS is WinXP sp3). When i work on the VS 2008 Dev Web Server it's O.K.
