Your site suddenly stops to save cookies?

I am currently developing an application. One of the requirements is the user to be able to change the language. I added a dropdown to hold the languages. Upon change a cookie is sent to the client with the language selected so when the user visits the site next time his / her language can be auto adjusted. It worked as a charm until today.

It suddenly stopped. I was wondering who to blame, when I saw a small baloon tooltip on the taskbar. It said I am running out of disk space ;).
I deleted my cookies in IE and everything started working correctly again.

(I just wonder if the disk space was the reason why under Firefox worked fine?)
