Re: Company Bypasses Cookie-Deleting Consumers
Sheesh, and I thought that had to be a joke. Because we already had at least one annoying cookie bypass technology in web bugs.
The Macromedia countermeasures are at »www.macromedia.com/support/docum···l#117498
There doesn't seem to be an "Accept for current session only" option. I wonder if setting storage limits at 0 would work or would it cripple use of some Flash sites?
Thanks, TeMerc  .

| Thanks TeMerc and B. I had gone through some of the Flash settings in the past but never realized the extent of them. I'll check out the consequences of some of the settings today and post if someone doesn't beat me to it. Of course you can always disable Flash except when you really need it. |

| SpywareBlaster, when the option is checked, blocks versions 4, 5, & 6 and I use WinXP with SP2, and it lets me know via the Information Bar when Active X wants to install software. If I've not initiated the installation, I don't install it, plain & simple. I can guarantee 100% that I don't have Flash in any shape or form on my home computer.

same here! if a site does not have a non-flash page then i don't really need to visit said site 
EDIT: --and yes it is possible to never install flash in the first place and/or be prompted when it wants to install itself. |
