Hi all,

I want to create a stand alone small contact form which users can download from a website in the form of a .exe, so that they can open it up from their desktop (preferably from the taskbar?) and run it in a small window (all built in flash), then once this is filled it, sends a email out.
Any ideas or solutions?

buiding it into a exe is not a problem. use zinc, swfstudio or even screenweaver. there are plenty of them. But sending email is not so easy. if you want to talk to smtp server, you need to use flash 9. if not, you need to setup a mail funtion online and the application send email through your php asp or any other backend script. but, i'm not sure how can you prevent people abusing your email script. anyone can query your page and send out emails under your name.
