Hi! Can anyone tell me how can I store settings (e.g.. state of a check-box)
in a program without using an external configuration file?

Sorry, but if you want to make something persistent, you have to write it to
disk no matter the method chosen. If it is absolutely impossible to write
anything on the local disk, you should still play with remoting (and use a
remote disk). But using remoting to store check-box state is a very overkill
approach.
