That's why I asked whether you're using an empty CookieContainer with your
initial request ;-)

You have to create an CookieContainer for your request, otherwise there will
be no cookies in the response:

HttpWebRequest firstRequest = (HttpWebRequest) WebRequest.Create(url);
firstRequest.CookieContainer = new CookieContainer();
HttpWebResponse firstResponse = (HttpWebResponse)
firstRequest.GetResponse();

HttpWebRequest secondRequest = (HttpWebRequest) WebRequest.Create(url);
secondRequest.CookieContainer = new CookieContainer();
CookieCollection cookies = firstResponse.Cookies;
secondRequest.CookieContainer.Add(cookies);
