Eye-roll Phennommennonn??

As I have said.. that does not work.

I have just done it in fact.. just to make sure.. and I am still looking at some Flash® cookies.
 Quoting: ShaneCMuir


ur sistas ass - flash's site removes all then u have the option here to whatever cookies any browser interface collects if any remains - in the tools menu theres a MANUAL fuckin delete tab IN the fuckin browsers tools/options menu dumbass

google chrome has its own flash tab too.

Re: You may have heard of computer cookies.. but did you know about Flash® cookies?
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!

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.
