[quote:Anonymous Coward 1305801:MV8xNDA2NTg2XzIzMTU0Nzc0X0EzQTc2Mzk4] Modify headers is a Firefox add-on. All those add-ons stop all the problems in this thread and more. Look them up on mozilla's website. If you want even more use Vidalia/Tor, but then you won't be able to use this site because it is a proxy application. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ [/quote]
Original Message
I delete my cookies all the time.
At times I have changed the settings so that I get a pop-up box asking my permission to recieve a cookie.
There are SO MANY cookies that doing that becomes a real hassle.
But at least that way you have control.. and you also get a sense of what is happening.. eg. cookies from sites that you are not visiting!
BUT!!
Did you know about Flash® cookies?
You don't get a warning!
Every single time you watch a youtube video, for example, you get a flash cookie.
Well.. I do..
If this is new information to you..
..then they are just
reading
yours.
ALL THE TIME!.. every site you go to!
