 The standalone compiler is called <code>lzc</code>. Its location depends on how you have installed OpenLaszlo. Developers who build OpenLaszlo from the source will find lzc in <code>$LPS_HOME/WEB-INF/lps/server/bin/</code>. Developers who install OpenLaszlo with a binary installer will find it in the directory <code>OpenLaszlo Server 3.x.x/bin</code>.</p>
 <p>Developers with more than one version of the OpenLaszlo server in play should define an alias: <code>alias lzc='$LPS_HOME/WEB-INF/lps/server/bin/lzc'</code>. By defining an alias based on $LPS_HOME, one can have multiple shells -- each with a different $LPS_HOME -- and the alias will map to the correct compiler for each shell</p>
+<h4><a name="IE_spurious_warning" id="IE_spurious_warning"></a>Spurious Internet Explorer Content Block Warning</h4>
+<p>
+If you open a local
+SWF file in Internet Explorer, or an HTML page that accesses a local SWF file in Internet Explorer,
+you will get a "blocked content" warning message. You can safely disregard this message and continue developing. Here is why: this is not a problem with OpenLaszlo nor is it a problem with IE per se. Rather it is a security feature built into IE
+to keep viruses from accessing ActiveX controls, and it only appears when you're developing applications, not when you're deploying them.
+</p>
+<p>
+Internet Explorer uses an ActiveX
+control to display Fash files. It assumes that a local file
+trying to access an ActiveX control may very well be a virus, so it
+puts up the warning. 
+</p>
+<p>
+When you actually deploy your OpenLaszlo
+application, however, it will be served to your visitors through a Web Server
+(IIS, Apache, etc) off of an actual domain, and therefore will not
+show the error message.  To verify this, run a web
+server locally on your system and serve the page off of your local
+web server. you will see that the error message will not be
+displayed.
