Deleted Cookie still calls old value

This issue is this. Have a login page that is suppose to check for a cookie. If the cookie is not there, then it kicks them back to the login page. If it is there, then it checks the value and lets them in. What is actually happening is if they have the direct link to the home page, its suppose to check the for the cookie. It doesn't. Now, if they login in properly, it sets a cookie. If they then clear their cache, remove the cookie, close the browser, Open a new browser, copy and paste the url for the home page, it will return the previous cookie value even though that cookie has been deleted. If refresh is clicked on the page, it will kick them to the login page. This does the same thing if you simply update the cookie with new values and try to call those new values. It will post the old values until you click refresh. I'm lost as to how to get it to properly read the cookie the next time that page is called.
