OK, apparently today is my day to look like a moron, Mike outsmarted me and
made it so that if you specify more than one domain, Interchange handles it
by creating multiple cookies.  What is happening, then, is you are loading a
page from www.yourdomain.com which attempts to set a cookie for
.securedomain.com, since the cookie domain doesn't match the web servers
domain, your browser silently ignores that cookie.
