Hack flash to enable fullscreen flash while working on another screen

update: (07/08/2010) This method no longer works, however this does

Flash has an annoying habit of exiting full screen if you do any action outside of the window. This is most annoying if you have dual screens and want one to run a full screen flash video whilst doing something else on the other.

Over the last few years how to hex edit out this function has been posted online between versions. Most people to fix this have used the pre-hacked flash drivers however, these drivers over here have not been updated since April 2009 and no longer support Flash 10.

Thankfully though, a kind soul has produced FlashHacker, which works with all flash versions (including Flash 10), available for download here.

note: First try 'hack' as advised, I however had to first use the 'unhack' option, then 'hack' option to get it to work.
