I positioned a flash movie pixel perfectly in IE4.5 on this page:

http://seizure.95bfm.co.nz/seizure_flash.html

It's inside a table cell, and includes <object> tags, but all the spaces
between the object tags and the embed tags have been removed.
Perhaps you could place your SWF file in a table with width, height
set to 100% ( and leftmargin, topmargin set to 0 in the <body> ) and
set up your tags as in the above page to fix this problem?

hth,
Matt
