Fixed so for interest : -

Instructions advise an absolute URL, e.g. <embed src=”http://mysite.com/flash/myFile.swf” />

Unfortunatley not with latest browsers :

To ensure that Flash works properly, all URLs need to be called from root, e.g.

<embed src="/flash/myFile.swf" />

Hope this helps anyone with the same probs
