click to activate? again?

ive been using deconcept’s swfobject for a while to remedy the IE Click to Activate box…along with simplifying the embedding of flash elements on the page. for one reason or another, the Click to Activate problem comes back if you leave the browser open for a little while, even though every flash element is embedded with javascript.

so while the IE bug is a strange, somewhat unpredicatble manifestation, one of my coworkers suggested this fix. I added it to the mix and everything is back to normal.

i tried to understand why, but really, it’s IE so all logic is out the window.

if anyone has any idea why this might happen, please, give a shout.
