SWFobject does not work with the latest flash player update in IE

So I get an installer show up this morning for the new flash
player after installation and testing of my site. It appears
SWFobject is not working in IE anymore. But it still works fine in
everything else.
What the hell is going on!?

latest Win XP patches access the site fine. Those that have been
patched seem to fail when the site checks the flash plugin version
in IE 7.
This is tested on sites using both swfObject and the Adobe
runActiveContent solution.
He is right. I am a Web designer and after a windows update
tonight all pages using swfobject stopped working unless I add the
code "?detectflash=false" into the address bar. This problem has
even rendered a major site like www.fox.com unusable in IE7.
