I had read somewhere that people were having trouble with file encodings of
the CFG file (very old info, but might be useful). If you're using UTF-8 or
UTF-16, you must have BOM character:

"Some mms.cfg directives may have values that include non-ASCII characters,
so the character encoding of the file is significant in those cases. We
support a standard text file convention: the file may use either UTF-8 or
UTF-16 Unicode encoding, either of which must be indicated by including a
"byte order mark" (BOM) character at the beginning of the file; if no BOM
is found, Flash Player assumes that the file is encoded using the current
system default code page. Many popular text editors, including Windows
Notepad and Mac TextEdit, are capable of writing UTF-8 or UTF-16 files with
BOMs, although you may need to specify that as an option when saving"

Might be something worth checking.

The other thing I noticed is that placement of the mms.cfg was a little
confusing. For my windows system, I put it in
C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash and C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
just to be sure.
