Quick & dirty Active X cure?

Question

Luckily what litte Flash embedding I have done so far was
with using FlashObject, so I didn't have much to worry about with
my sites and the recent IE change.
But I did have some of video clips here and there that I had
embedded without using FlashObject, so just for the heck of it I
put them in a Floating iFrame (thanks to Project 7!!) and, well,
bye-bye Active X messages in IE.
I know some are against using iFrames because of their
accessiblity problems, but don't Flash elements themselves suffer
from similar issues? And an iFrame will pass transitional XHTML
validation, but not strict. So what do you folks think about this?
