Try this: how to delete flash cookies. Some sites are tricky--they don't use browser cookies, they use flash cookies :Oh crap Here's the fix :pimp

Here's an FF plugin that nukes them automatically everytime you close your browser http://www.ghacks.net/2008/07/30/delete-flash-cookies/

OOPS! Here's the correct link for the plugin https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6623

To get on my newsletter of SEO and free traffic news, tools, investigations, tutorials, etc, email [email protected]

interesting, thanks for this

where exactly are these "cookies" stored?

Would this work for submitting blogs to directories that only allow 1 submission a day?

it gave a malware alert for me too


it is saying the culprit is:

which is part of mikesinner's sig, I don't know what is up with that though, I didn't investigate any further whether it is a false alarm or what the problem is

answering my own question:

"According to Wikipedia Flash Cookies are located in..

Windows: LSO files are stored typically with a ?.SOL? extension, within each user?s Application Data directory, under Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects.
Mac OS X: For Web sites, ~/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player. For AIR Applications, ~/Library/Preferences/[package name (ID) of your app].
GNU-Linux: ~/.macromedia
"

Yep. Here's the fix https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6623

FF plugin

I assume that flash looks for the same application data no matter what browser one is using... seems easier to just go to the folder and delete rather than go to the trouble of adding another plugin

Sometimes sites don't properly due to either cookie settings or privacy settings.

Thanks, nice info.
