We in fact are using swfobject.... Could you please file a bug report from inside any chat room by clicking on "feedback" so we can capture your browser information? Thanks. I'll double-check to make sure we've got the latest code.
When I visited the website's homepage, I had to click on the flash to activate it.
Anyway I will report it.
EDIT: I am using Internet explorer 7, on windows XP.
EDIT: [It works fine in Google Chrome, whatever... maybe the problem happens because you move the user to https link? I am not sure, but could this be a reason?]
