Some days ago I read an article (a link is on the Breadcrumbs tab on the right of my blog about Super Cookies). I didn’t think to check my machine for these super cookies and did not pay close attention to the lines that said:
GNU-Linux: ~/.macromedia
Sure enough …
amrith@amrith-laptop:~$ find . -name *.sol 2>/dev/null | wc -l 141 amrith@amrith-laptop:~$
Hmmm …
amrith@amrith-laptop:~$ rm `find . -name *.sol 2>/dev/null ` amrith@amrith-laptop:~$ find . -name *.sol 2>/dev/null | wc -l 0 amrith@amrith-laptop:~$
Much better. And my flash player still works. Let’s go look at some video …
amrith@amrith-laptop:~$ find . -name *.sol 2>/dev/null ./.macromedia/Flash_Player/macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/sys/settings.sol ./.macromedia/Flash_Player/macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/sys/#s.ytimg.com/settings.sol ./.macromedia/Flash_Player/#SharedObjects/CZRS8QS7/s.ytimg.com/soundData.sol ./.macromedia/Flash_Player/#SharedObjects/CZRS8QS7/s.ytimg.com/videostats.sol amrith@amrith-laptop:~$
Time to fix this sucker …
amrith@amrith-laptop:~$ tail -n 1 .bashrc rm -f `find ./.macromedia -name *.sol 2>/dev/null` amrith@amrith-laptop:~$
