I just tried to copy paste that piece of code, removed the ghost characters and accessed it through Internet Explorer 7, it showed the alternative content. I have Flash 10 installed, so it's not a problem of Flash Player version. The only problem that I see here is the presence on the test box of MultipleIEs, a program that allows one to install several versions of Internet Explorer on a computer. We use it for testing purposes (to test against IE6 and IE7) but it's known to cause problems with javascript applications for some reason. I'm not sure if my management will allow me to remove it from the computer for testing but I'll give it a try. Anywho, doesn't work for me here, which I find strange, cause I've used SWFObject before and it did work perfectly. Have a good day.
