Session lost in IE6 even with cookies blocked

[glassfishrobot]

When navigating an app that uses woodstock components in IE 6 and 7,
session expires without any apparently reason largely before
session timeout ( event with big numbers set into web.xml for session-
timeout ). In Firefox there's no such a problem.

I read Netbeans' fellows' suggestion to block cookies, but that doesn't do the
trick.

My application is frame-based ( top, left and body ) and, on left frame, I use
a [woodstock] tree component as a menu for navigation with, as target,
the "body" frame.

Can you suggest me how to work around this BIG problem ?
Please, help me.

Thanks in advance
Tony

P.S.

I saw this is an issue even for GlassFish admin console.
Also in GlasshFish admin console ( made with woodstock components ) I see this
ugly behaviour: session is lost after about 20 postbacks/page-changes ...
causing a redirect to Login page ) !

Here is my configuration (from NetBeans Help Menu):

Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.0 (Build 200711261600)

Userdir: :\Documents and Settings<userName>.netbeans\6.0

And that's my relevant parts of web.xml

The size (in bytes) of an uploaded file which, if it
is exceeded, will cause the file to be written directly to disk instead of
stored in memory. Files smaller than or equal to this size will be stored in
memory. The default value is 4096.

Excuse me, I forgot to mention I'm using NetBeans 6.0 to build the app.
