[Dirty Harry]

Hi All,
I've been playing around with xCart for some time now, and I have managed to get Flash to display (and work with links) in Safari (I am one of those Mac guy), and firefox. I'm also running Parallels (a platform that lets me run XP on Mac), and Internet Explorer 7 just does not want to play nice.
I've gone through the forums, and tried all the suggested code posted, and IE is still being stuborn.
The Flash movie is on my index page (home page), and the current code is as follows;

<div style="background-image: url({$ImagesDir}/bg_content.gif)" align="center"></div>
    <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0" width="1024" height="260" id="index" align="middle">
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
    <param name="allowFullScreen" value="false" />
    <param name="movie" value="index.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" />    <embed src="/catalog/skin1/images/index.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000" width="1024" height="260" name="index" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" allowFullScreen="false" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" />
    </object>

I been all over the Adobe site, and they don't say anything about IE that is helpful.
I've currently published via Flash CS4 (don't know if that makes any dif), but back a version ago, it used to include a Java script that Flash supplied. No more Java script now.
Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.
