IE "yellow bar" restricts running...

I am really green a complete novice. Having just designed my first VSD website and using Firestarter 7.2 to design flash I'm ready to upload. However in the VSD preview ,using the default browser, the yellow bar pops up saying IE is restricting running a script or active X and I would of course like the flash to play without this. I receveived support that I need to incoprorate a java script ( likeswfobject 2.0). I have downloaded this but really do not know what to do next. Any one feel like helping a sales guy masquerading as a novice web designer? It sounds like the code needs to be changed and that some files need to uploaded too. Here's what I have designed.

Everything is fine. This is normal behavior for IE when you are previewing pages saved to your own computer which contain object tags. This won't occur when viewing the pages in IE when they are actually on the web. There isn't any javascript to prevent this. "Mark of the Web" code gets around this, but you can't make use of it using VSD because it needs to appear before the opening head tag.

Also When using Firestarter in VSD Sam you will need to go to settings>add files> then browse to where the firestarter files are and add the swf object , and swf so you can preview it in the VSD/ default browser. Just an FYI thing.
Try to keep everything you make file wise and image wise, pages,one worded ( no spaces) :)
