Hi, John, I think you would get a similar experience if you had an image of size 320 x 250, so it's not really a Flash problem per se but rather an HTML/browser co-compatibility. Basically, the browsers treat the window size property differently - I think IE includes the width of the scrollbars in calculations but not Firefox or vice versa or ... do some research from that angle and maybe you will find a solution to making the right size. Hopefully someone has made a little javascript calculator that keeps up to date with latest browser eccentricities.
