Flash Cookies View will automatically display the flash cookies (also known as Local Shared Objects) that are stored on the computer system. Each Flash cookie is displayed in its own row that lists information that includes the originating url, file name, time the cookie was created and modified, the file size and file path.

The data can be sorted by each available column which makes it easier to locate specific contents. A search is provided as well to find cookies that contain the keywords entered in the search form.

The software program will display flash cookies that are stored in the default location of the operating system by default. It does however provide the option to change that default location to another path.

A far easier method would be to use the freeware Movie Extractor Scout lite. The Movie Extractor Scout scans the cache of Opera, Internet Explorer and Firefox automatically and create a list of all the flash files that it finds in there.

You may wonder how you can get those flash files into your cache in the first place. This is really easy, just visit the website and view or play. The file will be automatically transferred to your cache. Some multi file games might not work with Movie Extractor Scout lite but most single ones do.
