Felixcatuk... Dephormation seems to be doing it's job well as far as I can test. It alerts me 3 times when I go to webwise, and the cookies that Dephormation put in place seem to be staying, and not getting over written. :o)

Sammy... I think the cookie you have is one that Dephormation puts in.

All... So far I've checked all my other computers, and each browser, and no sign of any more "infections". Just seems to be this one browser, on this one machine. I've spoken to everyone else in the house and no one can recall getting a opt in page.

Sammy; Dephormation put that cookie there.... look at the value... your UID is set to Please_respect_my_privacy_random_number

Its not disguised, I couldn't tell you where FF puts it, it might even get deleted when you close your browser (if your set up is like mine). You'll notice too the number changes with each page refresh.

Its Dephormation trying to look after you :o)

ISP customers; you don't need Phorm, pure and simple.
Don't be a passive recipient of Phorm cookies.
Until Phorm can be stopped, use the Dephormation Firefox Add On.
