Jochem, can you be a little more specific?  The webserver is not mine, I don't 
have control of the CF Administrator, and any changes are going to affect other 
people so I have to make a strong case to my hosting provider that any change I 
suggest is going to actually solve the problem.

In this case the docs indicate (thanks for the link) that enabling Global 
Script Protection will protect against cross-site scripting attacks, but I 
don't think that there's a cross-site attack going on, but an intra-site attack 
of some kind or "security" setting somewhere changing my EMBED and OBJECT tags 
to InvalidTag at the moment of a CFFILE WRITE operation.  Could that even 
possibly be done through a cross-site scripting attack?  It's not anybody else 
modifying the .cfm files I write, it's only me which I'm sure of because the 
logs show nobody else has been in messing with them, and it happens instantly 
upon a CFFILE WRITE.  It does not however happen to any .cfm's I upload via 
FTP, and if it was a cross-site scripting attack going on they should be 
affected in that case too.  

So what could be changing my EMBED and OBJECT tags to InvalidTag?
