I know there's been mention of them here before. I've just read an
article mentioning freeware to get rid of the little #$%^'s

BetterPrivacy add-in for Firefox -
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6623/

CCleaner - www.piriform.com/ccleaner

Flash Cookies Cleaner 1.2 -
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Security/Secure-cleaning/Flash-Cookies-Cleaner.shtml

I tried the last one - it found 192 files & folders to be deleted! And
I hardly see any flash stuff when browsing!

I supposed those are just regular website cookies, not Flash cookies...

Yep, it is rather poorly described on that Softpedia page. I got that
link from the article I was reading and decided to test it. I ran the
program to analyse, but not delete. It came up with 192 files &
folders. I ran several other cleaners, including Spybot S&D, and none
of them came up with those entries found by Flash Cookies Cleaner. It
does appear to work as advertised in the source article.

Yuppers, from the old LangaList...or rather WindowsSecrets that some
have a subscription. Surely, you aren't the Mr. Livingston that just
retired?!!?

Is there a way to do this on my computer? Really chaps my @$$ to have
to run an online flash program to change local settings for a program
that's installed on MY computer. Seems like a HUGE security and
obsolescence
problem.
