Been thinking of wríting a file to the HD, though that is a second download for the user.
Should all be done in 1 download.
Anyway of writing into the registry with CF, if so what about security limitations ?

  hmmm....tricky especially since there is a reboot...if cookies are a no go,
  then I am not sure how you will keep state etc....? you could write a file
  with the userid to the hard drive (as you are allowing a download)..... but
  even that will require a user to accept the download.

  Good afternoon everyone,

  I have a small quetion, may be one of you skilled guys can help me out.

  I have a login page, when the users logs in an ID is pulled from a database
  with CFQUERY.
  After logging in, a download is started, which will install additional
  software on the users computer.

  Important is that the ID can be reused after the download, so I must find a
  way to remember that ID somewhere
  or pass it with the download.

  Cookies are out of the question.

  Users have complete control over their browser settings, and I know that
  some have cookies out, other users are behind a firewall which will not
  allow ActiveX.

  Anyone has any ideas ?

  Thanks,

  Chris
  Germany.
