Hi all, it turns out after some investigation that IE6 does not like "#" symbols in the LocalConnection name. My local connection names looked like "connectionName#1", "connectionName#2" etc. Simply taking out the #'s fixed the problem.

Or are there different versions of flash 9 that could work differently with LocalConnection? Unfortunately the problem has occurred one more than one computer and more than one location (but all within the same district). It makes me think it might be some network configuration because they are all controlled from the same central system. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> [mailto:[email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> ] On Behalf Of cisnky Sent: 31 October 2007 11:59 To: [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Block a LocalConnection call I would check the usual like Flash Player version. Also your local connection name might be clashing with another application the user might be running on there machine (Yahoo Messenger has been known to cause problems). Let us know how you get on.
