Interesting reading. I didn't know there were flash cookies.

You can make a little batch file or vbs file to clear those.
Don't need the have Adobe / Macromedia do it for you like it
says in the article.
rd Macromedia \*.* /s /q
Paul,
I am 20 years distant from my days of writing
macros (mostly dbaseIII) and scripts.
Can you explain in a little more detail where
one would place this for proper execution in Seamonkey,
please?
BTW: If it matters I am using SM 2.0.10 at the
moment and always in Linux (Puppy Linux to be a little
more specific).
Thanks!
Doc
Since the original article you posted concerned history sniffing and not
flash cookies, I think this thread has gotten a bit off track. They
probably did that testing with a bare bones (no extensions installed)
browser. Do history sniffing mean cookies?
Sorry if that was a result of my saying "I didn't know there were flash
cookies." Installing the Better Privacy extension solved that problem
and they are all deleted when I close my browser. It works with
SeaMonkey on openSUSE 11.3. Adblock Plus blocks the ads.
So Doc, did you read any of the article I posted the link for? Do you
use any of those extensions, and follow safe browsing practices? Use
Private Browsing Mode to visit those porn web sites?
Paranoia strikes deep. :) I feel pretty secure.
