    Yes is the short and sweet answer to that, when you view flash player content the flash video uploads an embedded tracking cookie into your browser. If you use a browser like firefox for your web-browsing download the addon called better privacy.

    Then if you visit a site like adobe.com with its flash player and you open better privacy you'll see the tracking cookie and have the option to remove it.
