Guest Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Whenever I clean my computer with ccleaner my pandora.com login info disapears. I sent them an email to ask about what cookies to stop them from deleting, heres what I got back: Pandora keeps all information about your Pandora account in Flash Local Storage. Since this information is stored in a hidden Flash file associated with the Flash plug-in, and not associated directly with your browser itself, it's not technically a "cookie" in the usual sense [for instance, Pandora account information will usually survive an un-installation and re-installation of your browser], but your Ccleaner program probably wipes Flash Local Storage in addition to erasing typical browser-stored cookies. You might want to see if Ccleaner has an option to leave Flash files alone, or else to add Pandora.com to the 'allowed sites' list for Flash Local Storage. You may want to read the Ccleaner help files regarding Flash, or even send an email to Ccleaner support for assistance on how to do this. Best wishes, Ian @ Pandora Media How can I do this?

Moderators rridgely Posted November 3, 2006 Moderators Share Posted November 3, 2006 Open ccleaner look in applications tab and scroll down and uncheck macromedia flash player under multimedia. Let me know if that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 i cant believe i didnt think of that myself but it seems to have worked also, is there a way to disable it for one site, and leave it for the rest? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rvic999 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Open ccleaner look in applications tab and scroll down and uncheck macromedia flash player under multimedia. Let me know if that works. I've experienced the same woes w/ CCleaner, NOT be able to selectively delete/save certain files, in the Macromedia mode.. This causes a lot of grief at times. CCleaner should be able to develop a system to attain file management re: delete/save, as is available for "Cookies" settings.
