Does anyone know of a flash projector 'project' or 'framework' that uses a new flashPlayer for each window?

We've used mProjector, which works well to a point, but I'm very disappointed in the fileIO patterns they use. It is very buggy with regard to reading and writing files.

mdm zinc uses multiple windows, but it is all sits on one flashPlayer 'session'. The same applies for AIR. It is great, but there isn't a way to make each window run on a seperate flashPlayer... extreme number crunching on one window will lock up all other windows.

Thank you in advance. --jeremy

edit - Just to clarify my needs (since I'm adding a little bounty), the app is an ERP application, built on Flex 3.x, and the size and scope of the project == huge.

tl;dr -- I need an exe wrapper (for windows), similar to AIR, that can have multiple windows, running each window on a seperate flashPlayer instance, and when a window is closed, it blows-away that flashPlayer instance / stage / etc.

+1  A: 

How about a DotNet application to handle the wrapper? It can spawn windows each with it's own instance of the Flash Player (ActiveX dll) running in it.

'tis a good suggestion. However there are a lot of tools built into 'frameworks' like AIR, mdm Zinc, and mProjector that would be needed, and my hope is that a project exists that already has these tools. Downloading files to the filesystem, for example; or quickly and easily managing an 'icon' in the sysTray.If no such project exists, I'll give you the 50+ for what seems to be the only answer. I'm just lazy!!!
