I’m having a problem with local connection on pc, it works fine on a mac but not on pc.

a movie sends parameters to another movie, one of the parameters is a frame label, on receiving movie it sends the playhead to the specified frame.

[AS]  
var folderID = “”;  
var receiving\_lc:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();  
receiving\_lc.methodToExecute = function(frame\_label:String, parent\_id:Number) {  
folderID = parent\_id;  
gotoAndStop(frame\_label);  
};  
receiving\_lc.connect(“lc\_rc”);  
[/AS]

why would this work on mac and not pc? I have the latest version of flash player on both systems.
