I've had the similar problems with the new on-line service to convert my 
notebooks.

This is the email I send to support below.

I got a reply that I need to buy service support to get help on these 
problems. oh well.

btw, you should post the link you recived from WRI, not a link to your own 
downloaded version (and zipped). The link send by WRI remain good for a 
week. It is a direct link to the converted notebook.

Subject: [mg82575] problems using your new on-line player conversion, not secured 
symbols error
Date: Thu, 18 Oct 2007 23:01:29 -0700

Hello;

I have been trying your new conversion on-line tool you just announced.

And nothing I do is working for the notebooks I have wrote.

Attached is a screen shot of an error I get about unsecured symbols.

Sometimes no error happens, but when I download the nbp file, nothing runs 
(i.e. I no dynamic UI is shown). Sometimes the file is corrupted and not 
complete.

For the case above where I get this unsecured error, I also attach the 
notebook I have been trying to convert.

Could you please let me what is wrong? all these work fine on Mathematica 
6.0.1 on windows XP.

thanks
Nasser
