Flash swf loading very slowly on website

Question

Have a look at this:
http://www.tsocommunication.ca/test/...x/index_en.php
and then this:
http://www.biotonix.com/beta/index_en.php
notice how it doesn't take any time to load on first URL, but on the second URL, it takes A LOT of time for the flash swf (header) to appear. Even when you change pages, it doesn't seem to get cached. What could be the cause of this?
Any help would be really appreciated... thank you

here's the code:
<!-- Flash Menu -->
        <div id="flash_menu">
            <script src="scripts/swfobject_modified.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
            <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="922" height="312" id="FlashID" title="menu">
                  <param name="movie" value="resources/menu/menu_en.swf" />
                  <param name="quality" value="high" />
                  <param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
                  <param name="swfversion" value="6.0.65.0" />
              <!-- This param tag prompts users with Flash Player 6.0 r65 and higher to download the latest
                   version of Flash Player. Delete it if you don’t want users to see the prompt. -->
                  <param name="expressinstall" value="scripts/expressInstall.swf" />
              <!-- Next object tag is for non-IE browsers. So hide it from IE using IECC. -->
              <!--[if !IE]>-->
            <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="resources/menu/menu_en.swf" width="922" height="312">
              <!--<![endif]-->
                <param name="quality" value="high" />
                <param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
                <param name="swfversion" value="6.0.65.0" />
                <param name="expressinstall" value="scripts/expressInstall.swf" />
              <!-- The browser displays the following alternative content for
                   users with Flash Player 6.0 and older. -->
            <div>
              <h4>Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player.</h4>
              <p><a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer">
              <img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif"
              alt="Get Adobe Flash player" width="112" height="33" /></a></p>
            </div>
            <!--[if !IE]>-->
          </object>
          <!--<![endif]-->
        </object>
        <script type="text/javascript"><!--
        swfobject.registerObject("FlashID");
        //--> </script>
                </div> <!-- end flash_menu div -->
