Oh, and I forgot a critical one: BetterPrivacy. See this story:
You Deleted Your Cookies? Think Again | Epicenter | Wired.com

Several services even use the surreptitious data storage to reinstate
traditional cookies that a user deleted, which is called 're-
spawning' in homage to video games where zombies come back to life
even after being "killed," the report found. So even if a user gets
rid of a website´s tracking cookie, that cookie´s unique ID will be
assigned back to a new cookie again using the Flash data as the
"backup."
Too bad there isn't a way to merge threads in Lyris, this belongs in "Why Flash
is evil" as well as here ;-)
