Saving user preferences between sessions.

I vaguely remember a discussion/example at a MSDN presentation about VB.Net
allowing you to save 'data' to some kind of storage that would be available
to the user the next time the application was run. Without saving it to the
registry, ini file or database.

Is this at all possible?

Thanks In Advance,
Chris Braun
