WEll i am deleting the Q :) as i found to be of no use.
How do you know the location will always be a:/movie.exe?
If I were to try it then the location would be file:///mnt/floppy/movie.e
If I were to try it then the location would be file:///mnt/floppy/movie.e
Yes I can think of another way to do this...
With a server side script and for example the CDONTS.NewMail object...

had a possibility of creating confusions--> i mean :) sorry
Now you are confusing me...
I do not feel like I gave a bad answer, because I know I didn't...
But how can your question create confusions? If you ask for a solution and the answer is that it cannot be done...I do not think that this is confusing to other people...it's clear enough for me...
Oh well...go ahead and delete it, but as an example "lucid7" was looking for the same thing...now he/she knows that it cannot be done with the mailto... he wouldn't have known otherwise now would he?

ah Dorward, I stand corrected. I'm very windows centric. and to all: a little confusion is good. shakes things up, I say.

One possible answer for you is to also have your flash movie on the web somewhere.
You could then use mailto: to direct new users to the web site, which could have a download option if required.
Just a though

Eventhough jayyu2k says it was a question that never had a chance of getting solved I believe I provided him with an answer, which is that it cannot be done...it may not be what he wanted to hear...but it's still the answer...
