Hi! there's an issue starting with release 10.0.2 of the Adobe Flash plugin: maybe you're victim of this issue: http://issues.ez.no/13783 </Pascal> Original Adobe response:
<i> Content-Disposition header may prevent SWF files from playing Some HTTP servers sometimes send a response header that looks like this: Content-Disposition: attachment The purpose of this response header is to indicate to client software (browsers, Flash Player, e-mail clients, etc.) that the file being returned should not be rendered inline as active content. For example, imagine you're reading e-mail messages on a web-based service and you click a link that represents a file attached to a message. The server may well respond with "Content-Disposition: attachment"—meaning, "Hey, browser, don't open this file. Save it to disk instead." This header can sometimes serve a security purpose: If a server provides files that were uploaded by untrusted users, the "Content-Disposition: attachment" header can help prevent those files from being executed in the server's domain.
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. </i>
