Easy Flash Tips -May Contain Slight Spoilers-

Well, here you are looking at a flash challenge probably on Firefox. If you're not using Firefox, I suggest you get it and use it from here on out. (You can get Firefox here. www.getfirefox.com )

I completed all of these within 10 minutes with a program I used on Application Two. You're going to need a program to, oh, I don't know.. somehow take apart flash files so you can look at them frame for frame. What could it be? The program is a flash decompiler. Most any of them will do, the one I had was from Eltima Software. It was amazing and easy to use. Google it. Download whatever catches your eye or that you think will be good to use.

Now that you have a flash decompiler, you may want to know how to download the flash file. There's only one way I really found about doing this. Get the Firefox add on called "DownThemAll" and use it to download the flash files. It's very easy to use once you get the hang of it. (You can get it and read about it here http://www.downthemall.net/ )

You can also use another download manager to get it after you view the source of the page, get the flash file url and put the url into the download manager, but DownThemAll is simpler to use for many people.

After you've done that, you can open the files and use the decompiler on them.

I didn't have to use anything else really, except on Flash 3. For that one, you will need (if I remember correctly) a recording audio program, DownThemAll (you may need to use it twice or three times) and the decompiler.

The audio program I used is a wonderful gem called Audacity. It can record, edit, slowdown, speed up, add effects, or anything you can think of. And it's open source. Google it, get it and use it there. This also comes in very handy if you are going to try Stegano 13. (You can get it and read about how to use it here http://audacity.sourceforge.net/)

These three programs come in very useful in everyday life and in many other HellBoundHacker challenges.

Now it shouldn't take you any longer than ten minutes to a half of an hour to complete all four challenges. :]

I hope I didn't give too much away, please read and rate.

This was my first article, I hope you enjoyed. Sorry about the mistakes. These are just the best methods I've found doing it.

Audacity isn't freeware, it's open source. There's a big difference (namely that freeware is just proprietary software that isn't good enough to sell, open source is software the owner actually wants to make free)

Also there are other ways of getting the flash files if you do not want to download software for it.

for those of you without firefox… i dunno who that would be on this site but… you can view source and get the url of the file and then make an html file to link to it, open it in your browser, right click, and click save as…
