How can I tell if something has loaded that I didn't load?

[Chilton]

I have a game, with a variety of scenes. I'd like to know if the user has downloaded a particular scene or not. Problem is, they might have downloaded it the last time they were on the site, but the game itself does not explicitly download the files during pre-loading. For example...

Preloader loads login and game selection screen.
Clicking a link on the game selection screen downloads the particular game desired.
The next time they come to the site, I'd like the game to 'know' which games it downloaded already so it won't tell them they have to download them again.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
