Nope, just tried it. Incognito, cookies there. Clear cache, incognito mode again and 3 types still captured. Really quite fascinating.

Did you completely quit the browser in between your visits? Because if the instance of Chrome from which you opened the incognito windows have been running between your visits, it may have retrieved these from the memory, even if you closed the incognito window after the first visit.

So we need a stateless browser and don't have one.

wget or curl come to my mind

Why doesn't anyone try this? I did, and it seems that incognito mode does defeat this. However, since this always sets the same cookie, I couldn't tell if it read it or set it. From the looks of things, it only read the cookie, which means that closing incognito mode deletes it.

I have gotten Flash Objects before, while using Chrome incognito mode.

Will have to repeat this experiment with the current version.
