hey john Something to remember is that when folks install the Flash Player via the MM web site, that doesn't install the _standalone_ Player... Just the browser component. Folks normally can't double click a SWF file and have it launch. Unless you install the Flash IDE or get the specific standalone install, there is no "inherent trust" of launching a SWF as there is no means to (thus a developer having to make an EXE from the Player).
At least - this has been my experience with all the machines in our offices and on personal machines... I always send out SWFs with "hey -- look at this" and they always forget that they have to drag into a browser to view -- and then we're back to the whole security sandbox issue. I know this doesn't solve anything, but at least it's some speculation on the rationale why you can't. :-) g.
