Nope, it's a combo of vbs and javascript and they are external files, go here for 
more info:

Macromedia themselves has a lot of info on this:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash/ts/documents/uber_detection.htm

as well as Googling scripts of which there are many, this site has lots more Flash 
info and some good tutorials:

This is good if you want to replace your movie with some html on those pages for 
those without Flash instead of a redirect to another page, just place the script 
that is in the <head> into an external .js file instead:
