As a Flash developer, you frequently test Flash applications locally, so you might see a dialog box prompt when a local Flash application tries to communicate with the Internet. You might see this dialog box when you test a SWF file in Flash Player if the SWF file does not have network access. For more information on publishing SWF files with specified permission levels, see Publishing files for local deployment. Publishing a SWF file with one of these options means you can communicate with the network or the local file system.
At times, you might need to communicate with the local file system and the network when you are testing a document. Because the new security model might interrupt your workflow when you are authoring Flash applications, you can use the Global Security Settings panel in Flash Player's Settings Manager to specify which Flash applications on your computer can always communicate with both the Internet and the local file system. Or, you can modify the configuration file to specify trusted directories on your hard disk.
