I, like many, have spent ages trying to figure out how to solve the dreaded security sandbox violation errors that Flex or Flash throw up when trying to access remote content. This has been a major issue for me for some time now but today I managed to fix it and thought I would share it with the world.

This posts is aimed at helping other people interested in using the FIVe3D Flash 3D Engine in Flex. I spent a good few hours trying to figure out why all the tutorials I was following were not working, so hopefully this post will help anyone in the same boat. I only managed to figure this out by diving into the Flex 3 Language Reference and swearing a lot!
