If it just happens on one site, it's probably not your problem. The message might be in error. The problem could be that they require a special registration process to access the site.
Do yourself a favor BACKUP!

A Web site reports that you must enable cookies? When you services from a Website A by using a frameset or portal on Web site B, cookies that Web site A attempts to set may be blocked by the default Medium privacy level. The Medium privacy setting blocks third-party cookies that do NOT have a compact policy or third-party cookies that have a compact policy that specifies that personally identifiable information is used without your implicit consent.
The only safe workaround is to directly connect to Web site A.
NOTE: I don't recommend setting your privacy level to Low. NOTE: I don't recommend using the Advanced button on the Privacy tab to Override automatic cookie handling and accepting all cookies
