Macromedia Studio 8 shipped with Macromedia FlashPaper 2.0, a pretty cool app that will take PDF and other documents and convert them into .swf files that you can load into other flash/swf applications.
The following is a quick tutorial on how to load FlashPaper swf files into Flash applications in ActionScript 2.0.
The NullSoft Scriptable Installer System is a great open source package for building Windows installers. Recently I found an open source editor/IDE package that makes putting these things together a real snap!
First download the NSIS package and install. Then download and install HM NIS Edit and you should be all set.
Yermo sent me a link to the UltraVNC site. A very cool way to connect remotely to a Windows Desktop for customer support. This will allow you to provide a customer with an one-click, outbound connection to your system that will then allow you to administer their computer remotely.
I've just set this up for us to use with customer support, creating a custom version.
This tutorial demonstrates how to load and manipulate (resize in this example, but once you have access to the API you can do a whole lot of other things) FlashPaper 2.0 SWF files with ActionScript 2.0.
