Fullscreen Projector Issues

I am having issues with a fullscreen Flash projector .exe I am creating for a project at work.  I am currently using fscommand("fullscreen","true"); to make the projector full screen and fscommand("allowScale","false"); to prevent any scaling of the content.  I added fscommand("trapallkeys", "true"); to stop the user being able to press the Escape key and revert back to a "window" projector.

Everything works fine until I ALT-TAB or click on another open desktop window, and as soon as the projector loses the focus it reverts to a windowed state, instead of being full screened.   I was wondering if there was any way of preventing this happening?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

There's also a bug since Flash Player 9 where if you have multiple fscommand calls, you need to change the case of the parameter values.

for example:

fscommand("fullscreen", "true");

fscommand("trapallkeys", "True"); // since there's more than one true fscommand, need to change the case

fscommand("allowscale", "TRue");

This appears to be a new issue with Flash CS5. My current workaround: Save As CS4 and publish projector from Flash CS4.
