Courtesy Eolas v. Microsoft, there are going to be changes in IE next year that will affect any web page with Flash, QuickTime, or other embedded ActiveX content. So if you don't want your users to be prompted every time they hit such content (ugh), you need to update your web pages.
The fix isn't complicated, but it is annoying to have to move HTML code out into an external Javascript file just to satisfy some ridiculous patent dispute.
Oh well.
