Shockwave uses .swa and .swf (depending on whether or not it's a standalone
"application" that's been generated by Flash).
I stand with the crowd with the opinion of "just because it hasn't been
exploited yet, doesn't mean it can't be". I guess all of the nefarious
evildoers are having too much fun exploiting ActiveX to start poking at
Flash and Shockwave...
