Hello,
I am building a simple flash site. I have a frame with the label popup. When you click on a button on the home page it takes you to the popup frame. The popup frame is a user agreement with a checkbox that reads 'I have read and agree to the terms'. The end-user must check the checkbox to accept the terms of the agreement. Once the checkbox is checked a getURL code takes the user to a third-party website.

on (release) {
getURL("http://www.website.com");
}

Once the end user checks the checkbox I do not want my site to ask the end user to check the checkbox again. How do I make this code remember the end user so it does not show the popup frame again? I only know how to do this with a user id or password.

You can use SharedObject for this. SharedObject is basically cookies for flash, that are stored as part of your flash player. This only works on a per machine basis, so the same user on a separate machine would still be asked to confirm.
