Using analytics within a Flex app built under MDM Zinc (exe) fails

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Take a flex app that uses the analytics library and works on the web

2. Build that SWF as an MDM Zinc executable

3. Run it

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

When I call GATracker.trackPageView("myPath") I should receive no error.
However I get an Error thrown "Error #1069: Property host not found on
String and there is no default value."

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

The latest SWC provided on this website, Flex 3.2 on FP 10, MDM Zinc
builder 3.0.12

Please provide any additional information below.

I think if you guys test that "ExternalInterface.objectID != null" in
HTMLDOM.isAvailable(), if NULL return "false", this should fix it

Here you go, this block of code will fix it for an MDM Zinc wrapped exe version 
of an
SWF. Place in the HTMLDOM.isAvailable() method

            if (available && ExternalInterface.objectID == null) {
                available = false;
            }
