    Help protecting my swf files

    Hi
    Here is what I want to do.
    I would like to add a script to my swf file so that if someone saves my file off of the internet, and click on it, that it shows a page with a notice that this is my file along with my url and that this is an attempt to use my file iligally.
    How do I do this?
    Thanks
    Ecinele

    Hi,

    it is common practice to check that the _url (or _root._url) matches the own domain. Note: if your website can be reached as both http://website.com and http://www.website.com, the check should look for both variants

    Also keep in mind that there seem to be tools around that would allow to replace the name by a different one.
    If your movie interacts with the server in some way (loads data), you can simply rely on the "foreign server" security restriction - the movie simply cannot access the data
