SWF in Mozilla-based browsers

Hello.

I think that each flash programmer knows this problem:

SWF embedden inside html site is not visible in Mozilla-based browsers with hotlink protection enabled.

This is because Adobe Flash Player addon for Mozilla Firefox does not send HTTP referrers.

The problem is also known as Bug 410904      https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=410904

What you can do is to add an additional line inside .htaccess file to detect blank referrer:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$

In my opinion the above "solution" ruin the whole hotlink idea - especially as to Internet Explorer...

But what if we would manipulate the headers sent to the webserver, to include the referrer (with the use of AS3)?

I would like to check it out. But I need your help.

Any ideas?
