Here is nothing to do with yii Just use:

if(count($_COOKIE) > 0){
    echo "Cookies are yummy!";
} else {
    die( "You didn't bring any cookies here. We are hungry!");
}

CHeck this url: http://nik.chankov.net/2010/01/16/detecting-if-the-cookies-are-enabled-with-php/

For Managing Cookies with yii check this: http://www.yiiframework.com/wiki/152/cookie-management-in-yii/

hope this helps

in the class WebUser i have overridden the function beforeLogin like this:

public function beforeLogin(){
    if(!isset(Yii::app()->request->cookies['PHPSESSID']))      
    Yii::app()->controller->redirect(array('page','view'=>'cookies'));
    return parent::beforeLogin($id,$states,$fromCookie);
}

and i defined a static page site/page/cookies to display the message.
