Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 290456

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; pl-PL; rv:1.9.1b2) Gecko/20081209 grave_explorer (Dymian-3.1b2)

I would like to have a new item in "Clear Recent History" for remove all files created by Macromedia Flash Player (~/.macromedia/*).

Creating a link ~/.macromedia -> /dev/null causes failed working of Flash Player on some sites (e.g. MySpace).

By the way, exit from Private Browsing leaves created ~/.macromedia/* files untouched.

The private browsing part is bug 468877.
Touching data files from external applications while they are possible running would be a very bad idea.
(the flash plugin could run in another open browser)
