Ajax Storage: A Look at Flash Cookies and Internet Explorer Persistance

An Anonymous Employee Writes "
Foundstone has an interesting write up
on their site about Flash shared objects and other AJAX caching
developments from a security angle. The Dojo JavaScript Framework
already includes code to make use of this. These "cookies
" can save larger amounts of data, can be accessed across domains,
across web browsers, and are not cleared when you empty your browser
cache. "

An interesting read if you've been tinkering with AJAX.
