JAVA Cookies Problem

[JCharlesHolt]

I just purchased vBulletin and got it all installed only to discover that it HATES our Java server. Or rather, the Java server hates the cookies that vBulletin sets. And, unfortunately, vBulletin won't offer any support. So unless I can find a fix, I'm out the $160 I just spent buying vBulletin. Serious bummer.

So hopefully one of you might be able to offer a suggestion (other than just turning off cookies). I believe the problem lies in the name of the cookie, particularly the use of brackets []. If this was removed I suspect all would work fine. At least, I hope.

After visiting the forums and reading a message, returning to the homepage on our server results in the following error:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: illegal cookie name: bbthreadview[1]

So, uh... any suggestions?
