Stop Adobe Flash Player Security Alerts

Hi,

I'm using Jeroen's FLV (http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=JW_FLV_Media_Player) player in a desktop application. The application is written in VB6 and generates HTML pages for a user to view using the Visual Basic Firefox plugin. Each of these pages contains an instance of Jeroen's FLV player linking to a video stored on an online web server. The application is client based and uses web pages stored locally to access videos stored on a web server. Every time the user changes page Jeroen's flash player goes to access a video on the internet and they receive this VERY annoying message (please follow the link to see the picture):

http://redbook.no-ip.org:6731/alert.png

When I click OK, the window goes away and the video plays fine. When I click Settings, the window goes away without showing any settings dialog and the video plays fine.

The issue is that this message gets tedious and annoying after about two times and looks unprofessional, not to mention leading the average inexperienced user to thing that my software might be a virus.

Is there any way of suppressing this message or removing it all together?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Can this be done through Visual Basic or using an API?

By the way, this is exactly what I'm looking for, I changed the setting to Always Allow, and it worked perfectly with out any security prompt! All I need to do now is make this change for the user behind the scenes, how do I do this? (As I suggested before, is it possible to do it using Visual Basic 6 or a Flash API?)

I don't think that's possible via VB or ActionScript...
