What I meant is: how can a user be assured that that FLA, as binary file, won't harm their system or contain a trojan or something like that. Any developer who knows the language can check such things on source code, whereas it's much harder for binaries - so how about that particular file? (again, I'm clueless about the FLA format - if someone can tell me that such files cannot possibly contain bad stuff I'm fine with that). -Bertrand
