How do you run multiple 'Test Movies' in Flash CS4 IDE? (Need the Sandbox Mode)

Question

I'm making a binary socket server for Flash and I'm trying to figure out a way to run Multiple clients in a local environment for testing purposes.

Tried to run the exported flash movie in my browser (to open multiple tabs of flash swf) but I just could not figure out how to solve the cross-domain problem.

I'm running my server right from my PC (localhost) and just simply want to test my darn Flash document multiple times so I can simulate multiple clients.

Make a folder somewhere on you computer. Usually I call it C:/FlashSandbox/

Then add it to the allowed file paths in the Global Security Settings panel ("edit locations" dropdown). Then just add your SWF to this folder, and you should be able to access your server.
