Site Blocking Causes Session Variables Not to Stay Around

I have searched the list, but have not seen this problem brought up yet. So
I could use your expert advise.

I have a client where we have successfully implemented ISA server for
Exchange publishing and web publishing. We are now attempting to implement
site blocking. When we activate the policies, the sites are blocked
properly; however, a web site hosted behind the ISA server stops saving
session variables. 

The result is that a user who enters a proper name/password combination and
has a session variable set to indicate a proper login is returned to the
login page when they attempt to enter the site because the next page visited
sees the variable as not set. 

Deactivate the site blocking and the hosted site starts working as expected.
The client is using IIS and ASP on the site.

Any insight in to this weird problem would be greatly appreciated.
