Ok Geoff,
It seems that all is working ok now : )
Here is the correct workflow:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
if (_root.MMplayerType == undefined) {
// --- upgrade don't needed
gotoAndPlay(2);
} else {
stop();
var updater:MovieClip;
var hold:MovieClip;
loadUpdater = function() {
System.security.allowDomain("fpdownload.macromedia.com");
updater = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("expressInstallHolder",
10000000);
updater.installStatus = installStatus;
hold = updater.createEmptyMovieClip("hold", 1);
updater.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (typeof hold.startUpdate == 'function') {
loadInit();
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
}
var cacheBuster = Math.random();
hold.loadMovie("http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/update/current/swf/autoUpdater.swf?"+cacheBuster);
}
loadInit = function() {
hold.redirectURL = _root.MMredirectURL;
hold.MMplayerType = _root.MMplayerType;
hold.MMdoctitle = _root.MMdoctitle;
hold.startUpdate();
}
installStatus = function(statusValue) {
if (statusValue == "Download.Complete") {
// Installation is complete. In most cases the browser
window that this SWF
// is hosted in will be closed by the installer or
manually by the end user
} else if (statusValue == "Download.Cancelled") {
// The end user chose "NO" when prompted to install the
new player
// by default no User Interface is presented in this
case. It is left up to
// the developer to provide an alternate experience in
this case
// feel free to change this to whatever you want, js
errors are
sufficient for this example
getURL("javascript:alert('This content requires a more
recent
version of the Macromedia Flash Player.')");
} else if (statusValue == "Download.Failed") {
// The end user failed to download the installer due to
a network failure
// by default no User Interface is presented in this
case. It is left up to
// the developer to provide an alternate experience in
this case
// feel free to change this to whatever you want, js
errors are
sufficient for this example
getURL("javascript:alert('There was an error in
downloading the
Flash Player update. Please try again later, or visit macrmedia.com to
download the latest version of the Flash plugin.')");
}
}
// --- Start upgrade
loadUpdater();
}

It would be great if you post in your website, because this script
could be of interest for many people that not uses export in first
frame
Many thanks : )
