Tip - Getting rid of ITunes Store memory
I do my best to keep my pc clear of cookies. M/S 7/64. I use FF and it deletes cookies each time I turn it off. Every now and then I tell it to tools/options/privacy/clear all current history. At least once a week, ccleaner runs to get rid of whatever firefox forgets to dump.
However, whenever I start up Itunes and go to the store, it knows who I am and knows my name, and e-mail.
I googled this problem, and it appears that if you do not "sign out" from the store - (not a natural step, IMHO), then the Store will remember you.
I'd only gone to the store to get album artwork. It is sneaky of them to remember my pc!!
Bloody cheek.

Supercookies maybe. Damned hard to remove
for Firefox try these two addons together. Install BOTH
BetterPrivacy
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...dl-mostpopular
Ghostery
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...dl-mostpopular
both need a few boxes ticking after installation, but together they should remove any supercookies
Much harder in IE...
