As I told in a previous post Adobe Flash Player maintains proprietary cookies called Local Shared Objects or LSO’s. When you clear your browser history on Windows, Linux, or Mac OS X LSO’s are not cleared from Adobe’s local repository.

Many sites are using flash cookies to track your movements. The purpose of this tiny, invisible flash module might be to simply record the page request, and your username or other session variables. However the upcoming version of Adobe Flash Player may have browser privacy mod.
