I used to know how to "pack" a moive in a player so any computer could play it even with out Flash installed... it allowed people to view it in its own window rather then opening the flash file in IE. I want to do the same but I fogot how. Can andybody help? Thx

I'm assuming you're talking about making a Projector file so that it can be viewed as a .exe...

You need to have Flash Player installed. Once you have it installed, publish the movie to a .swf file. Open the file in Flash Player, and then go to File -> Create Projector. That may not be the exact menu choice, but that's pretty much how you do it.
