SV Compucycle-how did they do it?

[jaeger66]

At least 2 months ago, I went to www.svcompucycle.com and put some stuff in my cart but never bought it. Today I went back and that stuff was still in my cart. Here's the thing-in between last time and this time I formatted my hard drive, wiping out any cookies, temp files, form data, etc. I have a cable modem but not a static IP. I even moved. So how did they manage to uniquely ID my computer?

did you have a log-in?
stupid question I know

It's magic computer smoke Just proves that internet security is not all that tight

yea, what tweakmm said, did you have to enter any login info, email addr, etc? Anything at all that would id you? If not then this is strange ...

<edit: strange, I don't know why that font tag is in the above text ... Can't edit it out either (using the WYSIWYG editor for replies)>

<edit 2: turned off WYSIWYG editor - and can now delete the FONT tag. Strange>

The only thing I see is that it's a Yahoo store and I have a Yahoo email address. But I use their POP servers and my own SMTP server, not the web.
