Assuming you are using AS3...

You can override crossdomain.xml policy files in your flash like this:

Security.allowDomain("*");
Security.allowInsecureDomain("*");

But if you need crossdomain.xml make sure it is in your root of the server you are trying to access. Also try a complely base simple version to make sure it works such as:

Make sure it is named crossdomain.xml and in your root.

You can also change the policy file to another server or filename like this:

Security.loadPolicyFile("http://www.example.com/sub/dir/pf.xml");

If you are using AS2/flash8 (first off I am sorry) then you will need to be sure crossdomain.xml is in the root of the server you are hitting.
