When a user connects to an ASP.NET application, a unique session ID will be affiliated with the user. If nothing is put in the session however, no cookie will be sent to the browser. This means that the user will get a new session ID the next time a new url is open or the page is refreshed. If something is put on the session (HttpContext.Current.Session["Hello] = "hello") however, ASP.NET will issue a cookie called ASP.NET_SessionId. This cookie contains the user's session ID and the cookie will expire at the end of the session (when you close your browser).
If the user logs in, a second cookie will be issued. This cookie is usually called .ASPXAUTH, and states that the user is logged in. It's encrypted, but probably contains some information about who the user is etc. This cookie sets ASP.NET apart from other web applications, because login-information is usually affiliated with the session ID.
