Modifying Internet Explorer to start Flash Animations

Is there a work-around to make this happen?

I have a webcrawler based on IE which takes thumbnail images of web pages. Ever since MS made it so that a user has to click on a Flash module to make it start my crawler hasn't been able to render pages containing Flash accurately.

Is there some sort of reg tweak that can be done on the browser side which would allow IE to start displaying Flash animations automatically?

Thanks for your help...

theres a javascript workaround just google

"IE + flash javascript workaround" or something like that, basically involves writing out the object tag in JS as opposed to html, makes it work and eliminates that pesky click once to activate.
