hit counter issue

Hi, some guy I'm working with has asked me to add the following code to my file so that he can check how many hits it's getting

Code:

---

var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

myLoader.load(new URLRequest("http://www.blahblah.com/blah.php?gameid=GAMENAME"));

---

Do you know why it won't work?
I occasionally get an error pop up when I run it in flash, something like Error #2044: Unhandled ioError:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error
??

Could be:

1. No cross-domain policy file on his server.
2. Publish settings set to "access file only"
3. CS4 blocked by a firewall maybe?

have you tried going to the url directly via browser?

ah never mind, we used MochiBot instead. Cheers!
