    Accessing Local SharedObject(stored in HDD) from website.

    Hi there, thank you very much for any help in advance..

    Is there a way that i can access Local SharedObject using a swf from the net.

    For example, i have a .swf that creates SharedObject running locally on my desktop computer.. But when i'm somewhere else, i need to access some of the shared objects in my desktop, is that possible?

    Cheers

    Share objects are restricted by domain. This prevents a SWF from one website accessing information stored by another SWF on another website, helping to maintain privacy.

    Local SWFs are considered their own domain. As such, SWFs from other domains (on the web) are restricted from accessing shared objects created by local SWFs

    You can save a sharedObject to a server if it's running Flash Media Server...
