It is as similar as C++ is to Javascript.

Yes. One simple example I can think of is a flash object opened in one
browser can talk to and use methods and data in another flash object
opened in a completely different brand browser, which can do the same
with a Flash object embedded in a desktop application. Any Flash
opened on a computer can talk to any other flash object on that same
computer (cross domain security is included)
