Steps to reproduce:

This behavior occurs only in Flash player ActiveX version in Internet Explorer.

In Firefox under Windows XP everything works as expected with handling CTRL+C keyboard keystrokes inside KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN event handlers.

1) Run this compiled MXML file in Internet Explorer browser:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
applicationComplete="onCreationComplete()">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.controls.Alert;
import mx.events.FlexEvent;

private function onCreationComplete() : void {
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onStageKeyDown);
}

private function onStageKeyDown(event : KeyboardEvent) : void {
Alert.show("onStageKeyDown e.keyCode:" + event.keyCode.toString() + " e.ctrlKey=" + event.ctrlKey.toString());
}

]]>
</mx:Script>
</mx:Application>


2) Give the Flash application a focus with a mouse click

3) Press Ctrl+C with a keyboard

 Actual Results:

1 Alert box is shown with a following content:
"onStageKeyDown e.keyCode:17 e.ctrkKey:true"

 Expected Results:

2 Alert boxes are shown with a content:

"onStageKeyDown e.keyCode:67 e.ctrkKey:true"
"onStageKeyDown e.keyCode:17 e.ctrkKey:true"
 
 Workaround (if any):

For handling every keyboard combinations that contains CTRL key like CTRL+C, CTRL+V, etc -> rely on KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP event.
