I do not know this as a certainty, but I suspect when FB installs, it puts itself in a "trusted" sandbox/folder. The trusted sandbox allows access to both local and network assets.
Search the livedocs for "security sandbox" for more detail on that.

But I don't find any explanations about the question number 1: why we have no access problem when we test our application in the Flex Builder environment, and then we receive a lot of security access problem when the application run on clients ? So, what is the difference between the Flash application running in Flex Builder and this Flash running out of this environment ? Is that means that in Flex Builder the Flash application doesn't access the famous crossdomain.xml ?! I think that this diffrence between the development and the client environment is a great problem for Flex devloppers ! It means that if our application runs on our computer, we have no garanty that it's ok for clients !
