title: How to read/write flash cookies with php?
body: <p>I have a site where I require to bar some people from accessing it, and creating new accounts due to rampant abuse. </p>
  
  <p>IP banning, setting cookies to identify people proved to be useless since they use proxies and clear cookies.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to save the "ban cookie" into flash, and have php respawn the http cookie if the flash cookie exists. Is there some sort of php/flash API that will allow me to write cookies into flash, and have php read them? </p>
