[2] Consulting Service
Aside from answering your questions and helping out new users, the support team also regularly get asked to develop custom solutions. This may be for users who are new to iMacros, do not have the technical skills to develop complex solutions, or sometimes for customers who just don’t have time to do it themselves.
We have been asked to do all kinds of projects, and provided they are legal and moral we are happy to do them. Most require additional programming or scripting, often in Visual Basic Script but also in other languages such as VB.NET, VBA, ASP etc. But they will all be predominantly iMacros projects, involving website interaction.
If you would like us to write a project for you, just send us the details, ideally with relevant information such as screenshots, logins, and sample input data, and we will happy to provide a quote.

[3] Top tips – Deleting Flash cookies
Flash cookies (aka MX Shared objects) are a new feature that allows websites to store information on the clients machine the same way as browser cookies would and retrieve it at a later time. An example of a suitable application for Shared objects data could be to remember the user's name, the number of the level he last played in a game, his high score or anything else you can imagine.
Flash cookies are not deleted when you erase your browser cookies or use the iMacros CLEAR command!
Flash cookies are stored in .sol files located in the Flash player directory of the user's profile, example: "C:/Documents and
Settings/Administrator/ApplicationData/Macromedia/Flash Player", and have their own format.
You can delete them either by deleting these files, or you can use the iMacros WINCLICK command to open the Flash Player settings and select the "delete" buttons. This method has the advantage that the cookies are erased immediately (no browser restart required).
