   Those will not work for me. I use a separate, isolated, Firefox profile   
   to deal with Amazon. Actually two, one for searching, and another for   
   login and then purchasing. So they can no associate what I search with   
   my email. I do the same with Gmail.   
      
   And my normal profile has disabled Amazon cookies.
