I recently started surfing the Internet with cookies disabled in my browser. You wouldn’t believe how many sites that require cookies to be enabled fail to tell me so. I would guess it’s about 90%. Most often I notice this when I try to log in to a site and simply can’t get past the login dialog. Sad if web developers don’t think that far…
I’ve long given up sending a friendly email to the respective webmasters – it’s just too time consuming.

There’s a reason why they’re off by default… It isn’t asking too much of a sensible programmer to include a cookie-check.
