Hi Folks…

I have this fully functiong flash app with that runs on the Flas Media Server. When I open one of the FLA files and do a ‘Control + Enter’ , SWF starts running and works fine. However if I were to go into the folder that contains the FLA and double click on the SWF file, I am getting an ‘Adobe Flash Security’ error message telling me that Flash has stopped a potentiall unsafe opearation. What I don’t understand is why am I getting this error when I am running the SWF directly and not when I do a 'Control + Enter’on the FLA since it’s the same SWF that eventually runs. Does anyone know why?
