My enterprise Flex desktop web app (yet to be released) has a feature allowing users to download a user guide for the application. Since this file gets stored on a user's hard drive (rather than cache memory), I wonder if anyone ever ran into problems with an enterprise not allowing their employees to download a file from the internet to their hard drive (for example, the IT department blocks this kind of functionality)? If so, I could change the web app to attaching the file in an e-mail and sending it to them instead. Wondering if anyone has an opinion one way or the other which way to go here.
