Watch a live video, share your PC with CNN

The other evil thing about "~\Library\Preferences\Macromedia\Flash Player\" is that it keeps an entire tree of every host name you've ever been to, even if the directories end up empty.<p>Things like "private browsing" are misleading because of things like this, because they'll never find everything.

egads! thank you for linking to that article. Sure enough, it was there in ~\Library\Preferences\Macromedia\Flash Player\www.macromedia.com\bin<p>Also, I should add that I <i>did not</i> watch the inauguration online via CNN. I think it might have been installed when I was watching live coverage of the jet that landed in the Hudson River.<p>And I'm surprised that Time Warner, owner of CNN and provider of my cable broadband service, would allow such a thing since, ultimately, it eats away at their precious upstream bandwidth.
