You don't need a guru, just a crossdomain file. Just save this as "
crossdomain.xml" and place it in the root of the site (and of course change
"yourdomain" to your real domain).

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy
  SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd";>
<cross-domain-policy>
  <allow-access-from domain="yourdomain.com" />
  <allow-access-from domain="*.yourdomain.com" />
</cross-domain-policy>

It's not that difficult and it makes your site more secure. That sounds like
an upside to me.
