Oops, this is a duplicate of #19727. Sorry.

This is a strange one:

http://dagobah.biz/flash/copter.swf (which is an html page, not a flash movie itself).

The site uses SWFobject (formerly flashobject) as a javascript detector, but that isn't what's causing the problems, because the movie itself loads.

Instead copter.swf itself (http://dagobah.biz/flash181/copter.swf, also http://www.wickedwebgames.com/swf/copter.swf) seems to have an additional internal version check, which in the Firefox plugin always fails. However, if you call it directly from the command line (either remotely or downloaded) it sometimes passes and sometimes doesn't.

Others on #gnash report it passes in Konqueror (perhaps only sometimes).
