In Flash players 22.0.0 - 22.0.0.209 (not inclusive), an issue was introduced by Adobe whereby various external assets (images, sounds, xml files, etc.) would not load. This was a part of a security fix they were attempting to implement, but broke MANY eLearning vendor's content.

Fixed in version: 22.0.0.209 and onwards

Affected Products:

  • All ICOM Flash courseware has the potential for issue here, but this is most prevalent in rapid development content, as all resources are loaded dynamically. This is only an issue when the content is run in the range of affected browsers.
