Hi Marc... have you seen the Flash Player 7 Release Notes?
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/7/releasenotes.html
Here are the Security Alerts which drew the later updaters:
http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/security/security_zone/#flashplayer
The 7.0.61 version was released a few months back for older operating
systems which could not support the current 8.x Players, such as Win95,
and MacOS Classic:

But that .61 version was for bounds-checking during input validation,
and I don't know of anything which changed there for domain-checking.

That sounds odd to me. Can you set up even a simple connection in the
balking browser with a new test file? (This could help rule out anything
in the larger, older file.) Does that balking browser change with the
current Player (assuming it has a recent operating system)? It's not
just one browser on one system where this has occurred, is it...?
