Apollo would work. I have no specific knowlage but my guess is that flex doesn't actually access your file system. What it probably does is tell your browser to access the file system. In any event, this issues has been widely discussed and there isn't a way around it (unless you can figure out how to hack adobe's security sandbox).

Flex would also have to pass the file to PHP/ColdFusion, so it must get loaded into the app, before being sent out to the server.
