and I found more in the manual about sandBox

sandboxType (security.sandboxType property)public static

sandboxType : String [read-only]

Indicates the type of security sandbox in which the calling SWF file is
operating.

System.security.sandboxType has one of the following values:

■remote: This SWF file is from an Internet URL, and will operate under
domain-based sandbox rules.

■localWithFile: This SWF file is a local file, and has not been trusted by
the user, and was not published with a networking designation. This SWF file
may read from local data sources, but may not communicate with the Internet.

■localWithNetwork: This SWF file is a local file, and has not been trusted
by the user, and was published with a networking designation. This SWF may
communicate with the Internet, but may not read from local data sources.

■localTrusted: This SWF file is a local file, and has been trusted by the
user, using either the Settings Manager or a FlashPlayerTrust configuration
file. This SWF file may both read from local data sources and communicate
with the Internet.

One way is to use the _url property, which will point to the .swf's
location on the file system, then just have each map check if it's
residing at the proper url.  If it is allow the map to be view and if
not don't display anything.

Subject: [Flashcoders] How to hide SWF Assets from Internet users

Hello All,

I have an intense situation right now, and I must come up with an answer
ASAP.

I wrote a map viewer application for my client, in which my viewer can
load .swf Vector Maps from a predetermined directory on the server.
>From within my viewer, the users can perform drill-down queries, by
selecting contents of multiple dropdown boxes - State, Region, then Lake
Name.  Paid subscribers, have full access to their maps - but it's
imperative that they can ONLY view these maps from within the viewer
app.

Since the Flash Map Viewer, needs to retrieve these maps from the server
using a public URL (unless I am overlooking something), how can I hide
these maps from the world - if the outside users are able to figure out
which path to type into their browser, and snatch up maps?

I know that server-side scripts, can access local resources - like
"D:\Documents", etc. - but once the Map Viewer is running from a Remote
Browser, how can I bury these maps under some type of file system that
is not directly accessible by the outside world (but only through the
Map Viewer app)???

Also, once the user views a particular map, how can I prevent the
map.swf file from being Cached on their hard drive?

If any of you could help me out regarding this, I'd be very
appreciative.

Thanks,

Mike
