[Daniel Kushner]

This is how IE handles cookies - I'm not too sure about other browsers.

The session cookies aren't stored on the clients file system but in
memory only. Non-session cookies are stored on the file system. When
you set your cookie with a '0', the data is in memory, and when you're
doing "time() - 86400", it's on the file system. Try
setcookie($projectFolderName, '', 0, '/');
