Check the HTML code...

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/flash2/cabs/swflash.cab#version=2,0,0,0"
width="100%" height="100%">
  <param name="movie" value="clintro1.9.swf">
  <param name="BGCOLOR" value="#000000">
  <param name="SCALE" value="exactfit">
</object> 

The <object> tag is an Internet Explorer only tag.. In other words, it
shouldn't be used. ;)

For correct compatibility, you should use the <EMBED> tag:

<EMBED SRC="clintro1.9.swf" WIDTH="100%" HEIGHT="100%"
  QUALITY=high
  MENU=false
  TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
  PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">
</EMBED>


In any case, if you go directly to the flash file itself you should be
able to see it:
