Hi guys.

Im trying to popup a browser window from flash (the same way as in the [Centred Popup Window](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/centered_popup_window.htm) tutorial). It works fine on my local hardrive. Unfortunately I need it to work from CD/DVD ROM as it is a multimedia app but the popups dont seem to work. Can anyone tell me if this a flash security problem or browser related?

Is there a workaround to get popups to work from flash on CDROM?
