You're missing what I'm saying Stacey - In a container OTHER than a
plugin/activeX control.  The player knows when it's in the local
FlashPlayer.exe or the IDE (exe) - so, that's nearly the same as having the
SWF wrapped in a projector.exe (FlashPlayer.exe + SWF) - see my point?

of course - lock down the browser plugins/controls - I totaly agree.  But if
you see what I'm saying above, you can't discount the fact that the ONLY
difference between a projector and FlashPlayer.exe+SWF is that that later is
not compiled.  But the reasoning for viewing the content is identical
(opt-in execution).

That's all I'm saying.
