i have 7 *.swf files that, when opened directly (full adress) start the ULMB download window instead of opening inside the browser.
average size: 500K
eg: http://www.punkd-ro.com/PRO3/bgm1.swf
the *.swf's contain 16 kb audio in stream configuration with a loading bar.

We are not here for you to directly link to media files. If you link to a media file you will get that page.
If you want to show the swf file you need to put it on a html page.

You are not accessing them directly via the URL bar by typing them in, or hotlinking them so they wont show it.

I think this may be causing a problem with my site, how can the ulmb server tell the difference between a direct link and an html link? I need to have one swf load these other swf's, it works just fine with txt files, and jpg images, just not the swf's. I hope this will not force me to re-do my site, or move server.

The server can see what page is calling the file to load. If there is no page or no file on the ulmb server calling it then it uses the download page.
