Um, isn't this the same problem as DRM? (which we all know cannot be solved.) The fact is, if my computer can execute the code and make the request, so can I. The only thing you can do is to try to mitigate the risk or make it more difficult.

Yes, same problem. Bummer...

Has anyone had success with making flash decompiling more difficult?

Anyone used http://www.amayeta.com/ ?

My instinct would be: don't bother. If the data you are protecting is worth enough to someone, they will decompile it anyway.
