InDesign conversion to swf--embedding movies, hyperlinks help!

Question

Hello, all
I am new to the CS4 experience and need some help. I have created a document and export to a .swf file. All works fine except the movies will not play and hyperlinks will not open. Is there a simple way to get the movies to play? As of now, I have quicktime files placed in the document.
How about the links? The cursor recognizes there are links, but will not open. Says some security settings need to be changed. I want to set this so viewers will not have to do this when they view the page. Any suggestions/recommendations are welcome. One request, please put in "dummy" terms so I can easily understand LOL Thanks!
Attached is the .swf created using InDesign.

The hyperlink issue: The links will work once the swf file is uploaded to a web server. If you would like to see the links work from your locally saved file, you will have to access the flash player global security settings. Then edit locations > add locations > browse for files and select your swf file. Again, a user will not have to do this if accessing the file from a web server.
The movie issue: Quicktime movies will only work in PDF export, not SWF export. Convert to AVI MPEG or SWF.
How are you planning to present the file: distribute file via email or accessible through web site? If it is a file to email, you could export to PDF and the only thing you would lose is the swf page curls.
