If you previously selected Remember in the Privacy Settings panel (see the following figure) to
permanently allow or deny access for one or more websites, selecting Always Ask or Always
Deny has the effect of deselecting Remember for all those websites. In other words, the
selection you make here overrides any previous selections you may have made in the Privacy
Settings panel, shown in the following figure.
After you select either Always Ask or Always Deny (or instead of doing so), you can specify
privacy settings for individual websites that you have already visited. For example, you might
select Always Deny here, then use the Website Privacy Settings panel and select Always Allow
for individual websites that you know and trust.
For locally deployed content and local data, users have another option: They can specify
which SWF files may access the Internet using the Global Security Settings panel. For more
information on specifying settings in the Global Security Settings panel, see
trusted files using the Settings Manager" on page
Security Settings panel, see
help/settings_manager04a.html.
The selections users make in the Global Security Settings panel override any decisions
made in the security pop-up dialog box.
About local file security and projector files
Projector files and the SWF files contained within them or loaded into the projector at
runtime are not affected by local file security restrictions, because the end user must run the
executable to use the SWF file. There are no changes to security and projector files in Flash
Player 8; it has the same level of access and security as earlier versions of Flash Player.
Remember that users are often cautious about executing projector files. A projector file is an
executable EXE or Macintosh application, and users should be careful about running such
files on their computers. If you distribute an application using projector files, some users
might not install it.
