In a quick test the following "embed"-free code seemed to work
in both IE7 and IE6:

   <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://[...]"
   height="350" width="425">
   <param name="movie" value="http://[...]" />
   <param name="FlashVars" value="playerMode=embedded" /></object>

Which versions of IE don't handle that kind of code?
