Washing Machine 2 at MacZot today

Questions: Doesn't Firefox automatically do these chores upon quitting? Doesn't resetting Safari accomplish the same thing? Does this do a "deeper cleaning" than either of the above?

I just dip the entire machine in boiling water - a big porcelain pot meant for corn or human heads.

btw... that free MacScan offer from last week does the same basic thing - it looks for tracking cookies and dumps them.

They totally messed up their "buy free and we'll send you a code" and then for two days kept emailing
because the codes they sent were defective, etc. I wrote back "If you can't even activate your own product,
how am I supposed to have faith you can actually do my operating system any good?"

The CEO replied with an apology and acknowledged the problem, didn't blame anyone, and hoped I'd
give them another chance at a later date.

In the meantime - mine WORKED as sent the first time. I've used it, but scanning every file is an eternity,
when it simply doesn't need to look beyond the cookies and cache. I don't know what else it is hoping
to find - if it is remotely controlled bugs, it would have to already know about them - and if that was
the case, it would know where to go to kill it - not search the photos in my iPhoto library.

Still - it found 128 tracking cookies the first time, and a few days later, after clearing them, another 44.
