Hello  
I have flash form that saves data to csv-file. It worked fine after allowing axtiveX.

But after updating ie to 8 and flash player to 10 (I guess it wasn’t 10). The script has stopped working, and I’ll get the error “flash has stopped a potentially unsafe operation…”.  
I should probably change the player setting but I’m not sure how.  
So can someone help me with the settings?

I would also like to know if there is any workwaround this problem. Like some other method besides javascript to save data locally.

edit / update.  
Many thanks in advance, I managed to get it work by doing it allover again, not sure what was the problem :), might be what is suggested beneath, which is funny becouse It was working correcly before…
