In Flash MX 2004 on Mac OS X 10.4.3, I tried the easter egg and Flash attempted to connect to the Internet. I have a firewall enabled which stopped it and the games did not work. When I allowed the activity, they showed up just fine. Looks as if they're either running from a remote location, or Macromedia wants to know when people are using them. I can verify that I have had similar results on a Windows PC - Phil.
