getURL and onBeforeUnload

Any getURL calls in the flash module will trigger the onBeforeUnload event in IE6. So if you have some critical logic that is attached to onBeforeUnload, you should be aware about this issue. For example, if you try to start the timer in the load event and trying to stop the timer in beforeUnload event, calling getURL in the flash module may cause unexpected behavior in IE6. This is not a case in FireFox 2. I didn't know if this is still an issue in IE7.
