There was some discussion over the last couple of days about the potential evils of Flash shared objects but I guess you could use them to your advantage in this case. If you included a small Flash object on the referring page that created a shared object with a name that reflected its relationship to both your standalone and the host website then you could get the downloaded Rev standalone to check for its existence amongst all the other shared objects when it started up for the first time. Still far from ideal and will definitely fail if the user downloads on one computer and installs on another. Seems like what you really want is a server-based routine that packages (zips) the standalone with a text file containing the required information on the fly and delivers the customised version to the user.
