Hello.
I have recently been aware of the fact it seems Adobe Macromedia Flash Player should be considered as a big privacy flaw as it keep cookies which are not taken in charge by Firefox. (Windows XP)
In:
C:\Documents and Settings\(my name)\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\xxxx
And:
C:\Documents and Settings\(my name)\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\macromedia.com\support\flashplayer\sys\xxxxxx
Could not CCleaner take this in charge, in its cookies management ?
Nice Sunday to all.
Welcome PSCD
Adobe Macromedia Flash Player is cleaned by the installation of winapp2.ini
Information can be found in the "sticky" about it:

A lot of information is also in the Beginner's Guide :

Secunia Online Software Inspector (OSI) is recommended as well:

Hmmm. In XP2 Home/FF I don't have anything in these folders. Do you have Adobe Flash ticked in CC Applications?

Hi PSCD,
Welcome to the forums !!!
I think I understand what you are asking and it is a great suggestion.
You would like a "Flash Cookies to Keep" feature. It could get complicated but certainly deserves investigation.
It's need is obvious but we have overlooked it.
Thanks for your suggestion, davey

Hello.
Thanks for the answer.
In XP sp3 Home/FF I found yesterday the Adobe Flash entry id ticked all right in CC Application so, it's OK.
In XP sp3 Pro/FF , the Adobe Flash entry does not exist in CC Application.
In both installations, CC is last 2.14.150 portable version.
I am going to try the CC installed version...
