CB,
Right click the SWF file and choose Open With... Then choose Internet Explorer from the program list. If you have Flash Player installed, it should open.
As for the tutorial itself, a few suggestions:
Make the poi different colors. Its hard to tell which poi is which at certain times, specially in moves like the crossover. I would also color the hands in conjunction with the poi so its easier to decipher which hand belongs to which poi.
If you are planning on adding more to your tutorial, I suggest working more on the graphics before you move on. Right now, the graphics can get the point across, but it would still probably be really hard to understand for someone who is completely new.
Lastly, just wanted to mention that the "corkscrew" you have in the tutorial is actually a "windmill" The corkscrew is the same but done horizontally.

I´ve thought about different colors but both hands and both poi are in fact two instances of one object (if you know how flash works..) so it would mean to make all lessons again..:o/ it will probably happen at some point in a near-distant future... but not exactly yet..; o)
the corkscrew thing is already done... tho not yet up...
Bug which windows are you using..? 98 doesn´t have it but win2k and xp do... or just start flash player and then open the swf directly from there... the clip is flash 5...

Bug,
Try holding CTRL when you right click it. That usually forces "Open With..." to appear on the menu.

hmm i like, is there plans for more moves in the next bunch?
would it be possle to have one read and one blue so you can see differnet paths better, it shouldnt be that hard to change teh colour, you could just update the libry with an bject of the same name, diff colour?
looks nice though!

yes, weave turns and more butterfly moves... and then some more combos and then, when I´m really experienced with flash, transitions between all tricks. Hopefully..: o)
btw... no different color for a while.. but it will be implemented as many ppl think it´s a good idea.. I´m working on resizing the clip and tricks now.... so you´ll have to wait a while..: o)

Here!!
Newest version... Left poi implemented, was easier than I thought...: o) Resized tricks, smoothed them.. Some fonts went lost due to system reinstall so they will return as soon as I get my hands on them... I was too lazy to translate so only buttons are now in english.. more will be translated soon, maybe a version with two languages will be made... (any ideas on this one, mech..?: o)) Now working on new tricks..: o)
bye!!

Was pretty cool though nice 1. Like everyone else ima throw u my 2 cents...u should name that "windmill" 2bt, and throw in a 3bt if u ever get time, thought im sure most people could work it out from your weave example 
Perfect for the next, "how do i do a 3bt weve thread!"

.rar is infact a file type that compresses more than say a zip file!
you need winrar to unzip rar files etc..
