Aborted Webpage in IE6 #303

* What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use the swfObject dynamically
2.
3.

* What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Well, seeing the page, but the IE6 aborts and shows the error-page instead,
accompanied by a "Abort" alert. No JS-errors because of that, obviously.

* What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

IE6 + Win 98 + Flasplayer 9

* Please provide any additional information below.

The fix is to comment the content of the setVisibility() function. It
appears what it's suppose to do doesn't work in IE6, I can't guess if it's
an API fault, an internal IE6-bug or something else. What's worth to
mention is that at the time IE6 reaches setVisibility() the webpage is not
displayed yet, possibly it triggers a display-state bug.

XP is the oldest Windows platform we can test on, so we will not spend any time
investigating any possible issues on ancient systems.
