Websites might occasionally want to store information, such as your high
score from a game that runs in Flash Player or what products you have
purchased, to your computer. In the Global Storage Settings panel, you
can control how much disk space websites can use to store information,
or you can prohibit websites from storing any information at all. (If
you prohibit websites from storing information, the website might or
might not function as intended.)
Use this panel to specify the default storage settings for websites that
you haven't yet visited. (To change settings for websites you have
already visited, use the Website Storage Settings panel.) The following
list explains the storage options:
information on your computer, and you don't want to be asked
again, select Never Ask Again. This action doesn't delete any
information that is already stored. (To delete existing
information, use the Delete options in the Website Storage
Settings panel.)
from a website can save information on your computer, move the
slider to the far left (None). Each time an application wants to
save information on your computer, you will be asked for more disk
space.

the far right (Unlimited).
on your computer, but want to limit the amount of disk space they
can use, move the slider to select 10 KB, 100 KB, 1 MB, or 10 MB.
If an application needs more space than you have allotted, you
will be asked for more disk space while the application is running.
content store information on your computer, deselect Allow
Third-Party Content To Store Data On Your Computer.
When you visit a website, the address shown in the browser address
bar is usually where most of the website is located. For example,
if you visit a fictional website www.[hotel].com, most of the
website is located at www.[hotel].com. Sometimes, websites combine
content from different sources. For example, www.[hotel].com might
display a reservations form in Flash that actually comes from
.com. The content from the latter website is
called third-party content.
Third-party content might try to store information on your
computer. In the hotel reservations example, you might be willing
to let .com store information on your
computer, such as data about which hotels you prefer, so that you
can make a hotel reservation. However, you might not be willing to
let third-party content store information on your computer in
other situations. For example, a car-rental company,
www.[my-car-rental].com, might have a banner ad on
www.[hotel].com, to track your website usage or to record your
preferences.
To prohibit all third parties from storing information on your
computer, deselect Allow Third-Party Content To Store Data On Your
Computer. This option is available only with Flash Player 8 and
later. Adobe recommends that you upgrade to the most recent
version of Flash Player available.
Flash components on your computer, deselect Store Common Flash
Components To Reduce Download Times.
Flash Player lets you store common or shared SWF and FLV files and
other components from different websites on your computer to
significantly reduce download times and allow faster viewing. For
example, www.[hotel].com and .com might both
use the same Adobe components on their sites.
For an overview of issues related to storage, see What are storage
settings? in the discussion of the Settings Manager.
