As someone who has Firefox configured to never store history, cookies, session, whatever, basicly constant Private Browsing Mode, I blame your website for bad user experience.

In the mind of the your users it is never going to be their own fault that tooltips keep showing up on your website, they'll blame you.

One way of fixing it: Only show a tooltip if the user have a cookie older than a day. No one will get a tooltip on their first visit, but that seems acceptable.



Wait.. How is that acceptable? The first visit seems the time that you would need the tooltips the most!
