So I here people cheat in games by using TAB. What does TAB do, and how do I stop it?

Tab allows you to scroll through buttons on the web page and in the swf. It highlights them as well.

Use this (at least for as1 & liveswif): 
_root.button_instance_name.tabEnabled = false;
where button_instance_name is the instance name of your button (surprise!).
