Either an update with firefox or adobe flash player now couples flash cookies with the rest. I like having my internet related cookies clear upon closing the browser to help save space and destroy anything malicious, but don't want to have my flash game data get cleared in the process. I've checked the security tab in options, but there doesn't seem to be a way to specify for flash cookies to remain unharmed; it's either delete all cookies or delete no cookies. Is there a way to have my cookie and eat it too?
