Shared Object problems

OK. Really stuck here,

Maybe just and AS issue,the final product is an exe so it may something to do with the 3rd party software I am using and the Shared object. This is what I am using to check if a shared object is there or not and then does something.

[AS]
var user_so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal(“usersliveDSB”, “/”);

country_test = user_so.data.fromCountry;
if (country_test == undefined) {
country_test.text = “Country has not been defined”;

gotoAndStop(1)
}
else
{
gotoAndStop(2)

}
[/AS]

The shared object value is definately there cos I can see it in a textbox variable…

As I soon as I run it in the projector it bombs out. I’m using a container swf which loads another swf (over http). Not sure if I am missing a security issue or something so if any of you have any ideas… please share
