We build e-learning for a company that must put 15,000 employees through the training in a short period of time. The learning consists of alot of flash simulations of applications with audio and video. In the past we have always been able to put the rich media(.swf) on a cd-rom in order to prevent bandwidth issues that a course of this size would cause. The user then logs in and their progress is tracked from the intranet and all of the large content comes from cd’s that are distributed. With the release of Flash 8 new security features have prevented this from happening. We can no longer load swf’s from the users local machine when called from the web page (i.e. File\\D:main.swf) this is the same problem that I’ve found while searching for the solution Is there any help ?? ---

See the technote: [http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/fplayer8\_security.html](http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/fplayer8_security.html) Quote from technote: Wildcard allowDomain: System.security.allowDomain() now accepts a wildcard “\*” argument that enables access by SWFs from any domain. so System.security.allowDomain("\*"); should solve your problem.
