if cookies are disabled, does asp.net store the cookie as a session cookie instead or not?

basically, if cookeis are disabled on the client, im wondering if this...

dim newCookie = New HttpCookie("cookieName", "cookieValue")

newCookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1)

response.cookies.add(newCookie)

notice i set a date, so it should be stored on disk, if cookies are disabled does asp.net automatically store this cookie as a session cookie (which is a cookie that lasts in browser memory until the user closes the browser, if i am not mistaken).... OR does asp.net not add the cookie at all (anywhere) in which case i would have to re-add the cookie to the collection without the date (which stores as a session cookie)... of course, this would require me doing the addition of a cookie twice... perhaps the second time unnecessarily if it is being stored in browsers memory anyway... im just trying not to store it twice as it's just bad code!! any ideas if i need to write another line or not? (which would be)...

response.cookies.add(New HttpCookie("cookieName", "cookieValue") ' session cookie in client browser memory

thanks guys
