    So are you viewing the file locally, or from a web server?

    If you are just getting a warning on the potential dangers of activeX content while looking at it on your own machine, then it is just a local security setting for IE you are seeing.

    You are also using both Adobe's <script language="javascript" src="AC_RunActiveContent.js"></script> as well as swfobject. I would suggest you decide on which you are actually using on your page and delete the other.

    Cheers,
    Aran
