that's a "feature" of Adobe's Flash (to spy on users), not K-Meleon's.
As noted by previous posters, currently Flash stores its cookies in %APPDATA%\Macromedia but it may change with any version of so-often updated Flash anytime... (notice it still uses old "Macromedia" folder, even though Adobe bought it from Macromedia quite some time ago). My point saying it, is that K-Meleon programmers would have to follow each and every plugin available to have it updated,  whilst it is very simple to do on your own.

Write a simple "cleaner" batch script for yourself (that's what I have, I don't use  CCleaner because I don't like few things it does).
Place a shortcut to this script in your Startup and every time you logon it will clean up all the garbage.

If you don't know how to write a simplest script:
Open notepad, type i.e.:
===========
@ECHO OFF

DEL C:\TEMP\* /F /S /Q
DEL C:\WINNT\Temp\* /F /S /Q

DEL "C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USER NAME HERE\Application Data\Adobe\Flash Player\*" /F /S /Q
DEL "C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USER NAME HERE\Application Data\Adobe\Shockwave Player 11\Shockwave Log" /F /S/Q
DEL "C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USER NAME HERE\Application Data\Google\Local Search History\google%2Eweb.w" /F /S/Q
DEL "C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USER NAME HERE\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\*" /F /S /Q
DEL "C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USER NAME HERE\Application Data\Real\RealPlayer\ErrorLogs\*" /F /S /Q
DEL "C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USER NAME HERE\Application Data\Real\RealPlayer\History\*" /F /S /Q
DEL "C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USER NAME HERE\Application Data\Real\RealPlayer\Temp\*" /F /S /Q

DEL "C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USER NAME HERE\Local Settings\Temp\*" /F /S /Q

DEL "C:\Documents and Settings\USERS\YOUR USER NAME HERE\K-MeleonCache\*" /F /S /Q
DEL "C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USER NAME HERE\Temporary Internet Files\*" /F /S /Q

DEL C:\RECYCLER\* /F /S /Q
DEL D:\RECYCLER\* /F /S /Q

=========
This is just example, part of my own "cleaner script".
It wipes out K-MEleon's cache, IE's cache, all Windows temporary caches, Real Player, Flash, Shockwave cache logs temp files and cookies.
That's for Windows 2000. On XP or Vista or 7 substitute "C:\WINNT" with "C:\WINDOWS", and on Vista or 7 substitute "Documents and Settings" with "Users" IIRC.[/quote]
