IE Browser versions 5.5 and 6.0 are not getting the LtpaToken

Technote (FAQ)
Problem
Internet Explorer Browser versions 5.5 and 6.0 appeared as though they are not getting the LtpaToken while Netscape and IE 6.5 do get the token (cookie).
Solution
Domain names contained underscore, "_", characters. This did not create a problem with earlier versions of Internet Explorer (IE) or Netscape. But IE browser versions 5.5 and 6.0 do not accept underscores in the cookie.

Re-defing domain names without and underscore solves, works around, the browser issue.
