centering movie in page using https publish

Hi,
I dont do much html.
I would normally put my flash movie in a table and center it both horizontally
and vertically.
Now I have used the new HTTPS publish option and command in flash which
creates a redirect for non flash 8 users and gets around the recent IE issue
off needing to activate a flash movie by clicking first.
now I can not figure out how to center my movie.
it does not even show up in dreamweaver when i open the page.
page is here

I searched your page for an swf-file. There isn't any. So it's no miracle
you don't see it.

The page I get is a bunch of javascripts and a VB-script urging me to switch
to a user with administrative permissions, since there is a cab file to
install. I won't do it. I'm running Linux. :-)))

VB script is a good old security hole in the web and people surfing with
administrator accounts help survive the binary fauna of it.

My advice: Leave this kind of "solution" and roll back to HTTP publishing.

so my user gets stuck having to do the old click to activate movie, THANKS
Eolas!
or I get stuck with movies that align top left.
I can't believe that Adobe would call it a "solution" if that is the case?
