Flash Trash

Did you know that Flash can store cookies on your computer, separate from your browser? And that these cookies are much more likely to be used for nefarious means? Not to mention they’re more difficult to delete (well, technically it’s not more difficult to delete them, just much less obvious).

Another reason to dump Flash entirely (I use the excellent ClickToFlash for Safari/Webkit and FlashBock for Firefox).
