What will cause a SecurityErrorEvent? - apache-flex

Question

I'm executing the following command:
var chatRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://test.com/videophonetest/scripts/get_put_peerID.php?peerID=" + myID);
chatLoader = new URLLoader(chatRequest);
configureListenersChatLoader(chatLoader);
chatLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
chatLoader.load(chatRequest);
configureListenersChatLoader(chatLoader) and friends looks like:
private function configureListenersDeleteLoader(dispatcher:IEventDispatcher):void {
dispatcher.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandlerDeleteLoader);
dispatcher.addEventListener(Event.OPEN, openHandler);
dispatcher.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressHandler);
dispatcher.addEventListener(SecurityErrorEvent.SECURITY_ERROR, securityErrorHandler);
dispatcher.addEventListener(HTTPStatusEvent.HTTP_STATUS, httpStatusHandler);
dispatcher.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, ioErrorHandler);
}
private function completeHandlerChatLoader(event:Event):void {
writeText("Completed Connection!");
var urlVariables:URLVariables = new URLVariables(chatLoader.data);
writeText("Your ID: " + myID);
theirID = urlVariables.peerID;
writeText("Their ID: " + theirID);
}
private function completeHandlerDeleteLoader(event:Event):void {
writeText("Deletion Complete!");
var urlVariables:URLVariables = new URLVariables(deleteLoader.data);
writeText("Deleted: " + urlVariables.deleted);
writeText("Getting New Chat...");
initNewChatSession();
}
private function openHandler(event:Event):void {
writeText("openHandler: " + event);
}
private function progressHandler(event:ProgressEvent):void {
writeText("progressHandler loaded:" + event.bytesLoaded + " total: " + event.bytesTotal);
}
private function securityErrorHandler(event:SecurityErrorEvent):void {
writeText("securityErrorHandler: " + event);
}
private function httpStatusHandler(event:HTTPStatusEvent):void {
writeText("httpStatusHandler: " + event);
}
private function ioErrorHandler(event:IOErrorEvent):void {
writeText("ioErrorHandler: " + event);
}
The command works on my computer but when I try it on my roommates computer it returns an error:
httpStatusHandler: [HTTPStatusEvent type="httpStatus" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 status=0 responseURL=null]
securityErrorHandler: [SecurityErrorEvent type="securityError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2048"]
Any reason why this might be happening? It works on some computers but not others. Firewalls?

You will need to allow the location of the file on your friends' computer in this settings manager:
