    Thanks for that tlu! Ive used Better Privacy in the past when it used to pop-up warning about LSO cookies, never used to know what they were in the past, but boy am I glad I had them nixed anyway!

    My advice is to not disable third-party Flash cookies, or else you will break some websites. I use BetterPrivacy to delete Flash cookies when Firefox is exited.

    What kind of sites require these cookies anyway? Youtube? Sites with videos and stuff?

    I found two sites that don't work properly unless Flash third-party cookies are enabled: one is a video site (Justin.tv if I recall) and the other is a music streaming site.
