These are nasty things. Some info is available here: https://anonym.to/?https://github.com/samyk/evercookie

I am not sure if they are still effective and in use today:
  • Nobody uses Java in the browser anymore
  • Very few use Flash
  • Most ad blockers should block the scripts
  • There are other techniques out there to identify users without any cookies, e.g browser fingerprinting.

How do you know that you have one?
This might give a hint where it is stored and how to remove.
