Google and Cookies

Hi,

lately I have great difficulty with Google sites. The regular search
engine does not remember all of my preferences, it loses the number of
links to display per page. Blogger does not set its cookie correct, at
least I am unable to log-in; there are similar difficulties with other
Google services.

Until 9.26 everything worked, with 9.27 it doesn't. No settings
changed on my side, cookies are excepted from the site visited. I have
been toying with the latter, setting it to accept all cookies, to no
effect.

Google losing preferences I have seen for a long time and shrugged it
off.

Lately I have seen bigger problems with cookies.  I have enabled them
but The New York Times has stopped displaying articles for me.  For
example:

If I try to go there it asks me to long in.  I do and it accepts my
login but says "In order to access our Web site, your Web browser must

That link worked for me.  Typically, for me, the false login happens
when following a link from another site, and it's an off and on sort of
thing. Occasionally, it happens when directly on the NYT site.  As I
recall, and it really is occasional, I either reload the site, try
again later or switch to IE for that article.

I don't use google preferences and haven't noticed any problems with
Google searches, other than list order issues unrelated to Opera.

With me now it happens every time.

Reload site. Then it works. 

This is a bug. It should not be necessary to make these
