It appears that Adobe flash can generate its own form of cookie and even
respawn HTTP cookies after your browser closes.

I don't know yet if this affects our Fedora machines, but what a sneaky

I've heard them referred to as "pies". They maintain copies of cookies which are then used to restore them after they have been deleted.

Same attitude in Redmond.  They think *they* own *your* computer.

You can always run your browser in a virtual machine and discard any changes when you shut the virtual machine down.
