Dear Fellow Web Professionals,

I am currently working on a site for a major
exporter of baked goods. I have developed
two flash animations that worked fine until
this morning. One is a video that repeats
over and over, and the other is a three-pronged
message that repeat 1, 2, 3, over and over. For
many MONTHS these flash files worked fine on the
web page.

Today, when testing the pages again I refresh the
page and each flash file suddenly takes on a border
and a pop-up box comes up and says I must press SPACEBAR or ENTER in order to activate those (flash) objects. Alternately, I can click on the flash files and the border will disappear. It is important to note that while the border is on, the mouse is a HAND indicating it is a link, and when border is off a regular mouse arrow-pointer. NEITHER OF THE FLASH OBJECTS ARE LINKS.

Is this some automatic update to the Flash 8 player that is extremely annoying? How can I remove this? This is ruining the effect I was able to create with two flash movies seamlessly connected with no border.

Please help if you can.

Kindest regards,

B. Leon
