[SWFObject] using 2 versions of Flash

Two options off the top of my head:

1.  Provide a link to your alternate SWF in your flashcontent div.  
Maybe a short description and a link to upgrade to the newest version of 
flash as well.

2.  If the blur feature you're talking about is just some sort of scene 
transition effect - you could test for player version within your SWF 
and deliver the appropriate effect depending on which version the user 
is sporting.

Note:  If the blur feature IS the sort of thing that you can create an 
equivalent compatable version of for player 6, why not just go that 
route from the start and save yourself some trouble ;)
