Flash Ad banner does not show up for some visitors

I made a banner ad for a friend's site using Flash, it plays nicely for me and whatever computer I viewed it from, but there are a good amount of people who say they don't see it. The SWF is exported for Flash Player 9, but those people who don't see it, have it installed already. They also see the top banner fine (which was made in lower Flash version however).
The trouble is I can't reproduce the problem with any computer I tried so far. The banner seems to be working fine.
Can anyone help me? It's the white banner with blue/red letters.

The page is fine in firefox, but in IE 6.0.2900 there are some serious issues.

Could it be messed up code? He uses Joomla but hasn't updated the version for a while, also he doesn't use SWFObject plugin to embed Flash. I'll have to re-test in IE6 when I get home.
