Here's a wild guess: Could you be using both an embed and an object tag when you're embedding? Maybe you're defining the bgcolor attribute in the "embed" tag only and not in the "object"? Firefox would use the "embed" tag and IE the "object" tag.
That's really the only thing that could be browser specific I can think of. If that turned out to be the problem, you should take a look at the different javascript embedding solutions out there to make this process less painful (SWFObject being the most common solution).
