Probably is related with this security item in flash:

http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer10_security_changes_02.html#head32

"Starting with version 10,0,2, if Flash Player sees a
"Content-Disposition: attachment" header while downloading a SWF file,
it will ignore the SWF file rather than play it. Note that this
restriction applies only to SWF files and not to other types of content,
 such as images, sounds, text, or XML files, policy files, etc."

And I found exatly the same response header in files served by Orkut's
gmodule.com proxy/cache:

Expires: Mon, 13 Sep 2010 12:19:00 GMT
Cache-Control: public,max-age=2592000
Content-Type: application/x-shockwave-flash; charset=UTF-8
Server: GSE
Via: HTTP/1.1 GWA
*Content-Disposition: attachment;filename=p.txt*
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Date: Sat, 14 Aug 2010 12:19:00 GMT
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN
X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block


So every Flash file cached by Orkut is broken.

It's amazing how Orkut team throws stuff in production without test.
