Storing information on user's computer

[phildman14]

I just wanted to know what the best or amybe a few different ways to store info/preferences on the user's comp so that i can access it later. It likes like in MX i can store it WITHIN flash? (i guessed this cuz when u goto settings for flash it says amount of data storage allowed) i know a way to do it with cookies but its a bit tedious so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

i read it all and it dosent make ne sense to me. i just wanna store a var. like settings=1,25,yes,0x937478,mikey,johnson

and be able to read it later. eg: You log on to the site. it prompts for your name. it then saves the name var to the comp. next time u visit it reads the var and skips the name prompt. thanks for helping tho
