Cookies Question

Post by Jon Light (deceased) »

If I am blocking cookies from, say, CraigsList, how come it still shows me the items that I have & haven't clicked on (color change)? Where is this info being stashed on my computer? I'm using Firefox and I have specifically blocked CL cookies, as an experiment.
A related question---where is the info stashed that indicates that I have flagged a CL item (for spam) therefore only allowing me a single flag instance per item?
