Flasm 1.61 - Igor Kogan

When you encounter a Flash-only website and the navigation doesn’t work properly for your browser, what do you do if you desperately want to browse that site?

If you can understand code, you can always download the .SWF file via viewing the source or searching for the file in the browser cache before decompiling/disassembling it to understand the navigation code. If not, I guess you’ll just have to use another browser and try your luck :(

After you download the SWF file, you can disassemble the ActionScript code into bytecode with Flasm to a text file and read or search the text file to find the links that you want. If you don’t understand the code, try searching for the filetype e.g search for .jpg or .bmp when looking for the links to the wallpaper section, etc. The links that you find may be relative to the site e.g “\wallpapers\01_1024×768.jpg” and you may need to join the site name e.g “www.mywallpapers.com” with “\wallpapers\01_1024×768.jpg” to get the absolute links. Sometimes it’ll be much more complicated but I think you get the general idea.

If you’re looking for a Flash ActionScript decompiler, you can also try Flare also by Igor Kogan. Both applications are freeware.

You can also find a very detailed explanation on the Flash virtual machine on the Flasm page if you’re interested in such stuff. I know reverse engineers will :)
