Cookies are your answer.
When they connect, write the unique Id to a cookie, and retrieve it when they next connect.

Thanks for the answer ,but that I have already mentioned that ,I don't want to use cookies ,as end user can delete the cookies whenever he/she wants.

Ok - I was suggesting cookies because that's your only real option without asking the user to log in or give some information to your web app to identify themselves/ their computer.
I guess you are using it for some sort of licensing scheme so don't want users accessing from multiple machines?
Best you could do is a combination of cookie, ip address, user ID and date/time
