The CCleaner app identifies and removes flash cookies. Running it
regularly to get rid of your stored internet files is a good step. You
can have CCleaner secure wipe files if you want some extra peace of mind.

I just did a search in Google for "Supercuts". At the top of the list
was a map of the area where I live, showing the location of the nearest
Supercuts store to my house.
I have the preference variable geo.enabled set to "false". I have no
cookies set for Supercuts. The only cookie I have for Google resulted
from my setting my search preferences; in those preferences, I left my
location blank.
Why does it appear that I'm still getting location-aware browsing?

Also, make sure you clean your flash cookies because
every flash site you have visited is stored on your computer.
This last thing is also a problem. I have FlashBlock installed and
enabled. Still, I get Flash cookies stored on my hard drive.
