This is a must-read for any Flash Developer – sooner or later one of your clients will complain about Flash related security popups or blocked content after installing Service Pack 2 (SP2) for Windows XP. Not only that, SP2 might block Flash content altogether…
To be honest I personally think that Microsoft has gone one step too far here. Is Flash content suddenly a security thread? Or is it ‘only’ Active X that they are worried about?
Now that would be funny as they have themselves invented Active X – and now feel the need to block their own technology.
