macromedia players flash : Working in Flash Player on OSX and Linux, not Windows

We created a script that retrieves data from a MySQL Database with PHP,
whereafter the PHP script automatically generates the XML-file. The XML-file
will be used as the input file for showing content in Flash. It works great on
both Mac OSX and Linux (Mandrake 10.0) but we can't get it running on Windows
XP. On Linux in Firefox it is working but on Firefox on Windows it's not
working. Does someone have a clue about what can be wrong? All the machines
don't use any firewall...I expect it to be a bug in Windows (one of many :( )

Thanks in advance....

Well, thing number 1 is to determine where in the process the failure
occurs. Is the PHP generating the XML? If so, then you can use the
remote debugger in Flash Authoring tool to look to see if the XML is
being loaded into Flash..

(read through debugging in Flash MX 2004 help, break it down into steps
and start looking at individual pieces..)
