SWF files can be parsed with the right external parser.  Get
swfparser.tar.gz  from www.htdig.org/contrib/ and use it in conjuction with
doc2html which includes a swf2html.pl script.  It will extract the links
from versions 1 to 5 .swf files.

If you have the latest Flash MX files to parse then swfparse is no use.  I
use a Java application called JGenerator, which you may still be able to
find free of charge.  It outputs a list of  tags, including embedded links,
when called with the -dump option.  I can supply a script, fmx2html.pl, to
use it in conjunction with doc2html.  I have not submitted this yet because
I am not entirely happy with it.
