It's just a thought but maybe you could display the flash movie in an HTML
application page (.hta) rather than a standard HTML page as this can
sidestep regular browser security and should be able to launch apps from VB
Script.  You can find more information on .hta files on Microsoft's website.

Subject: [flash_programming] Launch executable from flash


Is there anyway to launch an executable file when the Flash movie is playing
in the Internet Explorer browser and not with the projector? (this is a
local presentation using the browser)

Thank you
