Angel are you still having this issue with the latest Firefox version?

Also, could you please be more specific regarding the steps to reproduce? Can you provide a test case or a link that could help me understand the problem you are having?

 I can't test if it's working anymore. They are killing flash, so I am moving to other languages/technologies like Javascript, PHP, etc. The app I was working on, was for a client of mine, and involved loading an Actionscript 2.0 SWF file into the Actionscript 3.0 app, via LocalConnection. As I don't have Flash Professional program anymore, I use FlashDevelop, it doesn't support Actionscript 2.0, so I can't test this anymore. Also, the files were deleted from my hosting account so the link to the app for testing purposes is broken. So you can mark this report as you think appropiate.
