Flash Player 10.1 To Support Private Browsing


Private browsing is a relative new mode that has been added to several popular web browsers recently. It basically allows a user to work with the web browser normally. Data that is accumulated during the private browsing sessions is only temporarily available which is the difference to the normal browsing mode. This means that the web browser's history or the temporary Internet files will not contain clues about the websites that the user visited while in private browsing mode.
One exception to that rule is Flash content, so called flash cookies or local shared objects, are still stored on the system and an analyst could use those to uncover the websites that stored them on the computer even in private browsing mode.
