I’ve just started out working with cookies in flash and looked at the \*\*poms tutorials \*\*[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/sharedobjects.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/sharedobjects.htm)

I think its quite kool how flash can see what OS the user has and want to know what other similar things it can do?

Is there a list of commands that could get the users browser software etc for example?
