Security issue in Flash 8

[marrek]

My LoadVars.load("http://....) doesn't work in the authoring environment (all of a sudden), but my app hasn't changed and still works correctly ( otherwise).

If i publish my app, the html file works correctly, though I did have to set security permissions the 1st time I opened it.

I think i'm having a security problem with the sandbox ????

I've found the following in a white paper

loadVars.load--- Not allowed if the calling SWF file is in the local-with-file-support and resource if from a network....

this seems to describe my problem, but how do i fix it? Any ideas are appreciated

Try changing this:
File -> Publish Settings -> Flash -> Lockal Playback Sequrity to 'Access Network only'.

Hi,

thanks for the help, but i found a solution. I performed a Window XP, Non-destructive recovery. I'm not sure if that is a function of XP ( probably) or my HP laptops software. Anyway, a non-destructive recovery does delete some applications, but leaves all data. ( flash 8, nero, flashDevelop were all untouched, but Mozilla was deleted)

This was only one of the problems I have been encountering with flash 8 ( and only flash) since i did a spyware removal.

Anyway, it seems(?) that flash relied on a .dll or xp file to connect to urls, that became corrupt or quarantined during my spyware removal.
