Converting PowerPoint files with Hyperlinks to Captivate

I converted a PowerPoint presentation to Captivate, and once it was converted I previewed it and all the hyperlinks worked fine.  However, when I published it in html and viewed the output, the links quit working.

I received a message saying "Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.  The following local application on your computer or network (my swf file) is trying to communicate with this internet-enabled location" (the hyperlink).  I don't know what this means or how to fix it, because clicking on Settings doesn't help me.  I've attached a copy of the message I'm receiving.

Has anyone else had this problem?

This is a VERY old thread, I am going to lock it.

Please start a new thread for your question. It has no sense to answer here because the screenshots for CP9 are totally different from the ones for the version mentioned in this original thread.

Hey,

You might wanna try setting the Flash player global security settings.

Go to http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.html and add your drive, or just the folder where your content(s) is/are to the trusted locatoins and try again. That should solve your problem.

Cheers!
