I have a project where I am drawing circles and line and such directly
onto a component extending a UIComponent (all actionscript)

characters).

objects and place those on

You basically end up with a rectangle with a light pinstripe effect.
Nice.

in those windows while the mouse is over them, but not show them when
the mouse is elsewhere.

I have a component which downloads a list of credit card numbers for

Is there a way to MAKE SURE that flash does not leave this on the disk

about (cache) are temporary internet files and normal swap-like disk
caching.
