Okay, unfortunately, I wrote too soon on the success of Sam's
solution.

Here's the issue. Remember: this is all in IE6.

When the page with the flash SWFObject div initially loads I get the
notorious "Press OK to continue..." message. After clicking okay the
page loads fine.

Here's the problem now: The div holding the actual YouTube-linked
player (flashHGTVvid) displays on the page in two cases: 1) if the
page is just refreshed, or 2) if the player is used (by clicking on
the image-link that initially shows the jQuery dialog - code for that
is in my OP).

So, I can't say I've really solved anything at this point.

What about using JavaScript or even jQuery in some way to hide the
"flashHGTVvid" div and only display it when the image-link is clicked.
Could that work? Or is there some setting/property/param for SWFObject
I can use to remedy this?

Thanks again!
