It might be easier to talk with the client, have them grab their 
button's links from parameters in the HTML you supply. (If you check the 
markup of banner ads then the target URL is usually either in PARAMs or 
as query terms to the calling URL, both of which can be accessed by the 
SWF.)

One way to actually break clicks in any SWF is to put something atop it, 
but then you get into browser differences... which browsers will draw 
their markup instructions atop plugin content, which ones let clicks go 
through, and so on.

Another tack to break the SWF's created functionality is to host it 
within your own SWF, which has something atop that. But the original 
creator might have broken your plan to break his plan, there's always 
something wacky possible with so many potential authors.

Easiest might be to tell the client that this SWF they're creating for 
use on your site should have its URLs specified in the calling markup, 
rather than locked into the SWF. That might take some negotiation, though.
