When I try to login to my bank, an LSO cookie (settings.sol) is being put on my machine, and a pop-up window trying to elicit my security details appears. I have McAfee AV, and have used ccCleaner and Bleachbit, but nothing comes up. My bank says I must have spyware somewhere on my machine. I have installed better privacy, but LSO keeps coming back.

The BetterPrivacy extension (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) deals with Flash LSO (cookies).
