Ok,
Here are some steps you can do to help us debug this problem.
First install the debug version of flash player for your platform
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html"Adobe Flash Player 10 — Debugger Versions (aka debug players or content debuggers)"
you can verify you're running a debug player by right clicking and see if you have a menu option that says "Show Redraw Regions"
Then edit your configuration file here:
Windows: C:\Documents and Settings\username\mm.cfg
Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\mm.cfg
Macintosh: /Users/username/mm.cfg
Linux: /home/username/mm.cfg
create it if it doesn't exist and insert this text:
PolicyFileLog=1 # Enables policy file logging
PolicyFileLogAppend=1 # Optional; do not clear log at startup
This turns on some logging that will let us debug the connection problems
It should generate a file called policyfiles.txt in the following folder
Windows: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\Logs
Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\Logs
Macintosh: /Users/username/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/Logs
Linux: /home/username/.macromedia/Flash_Player/Logs
you should delete this file. connect to thefarwilds.com, then close browser, then look
at this file and post a reply with its contents. mine looks like this.
