you can use MMs detection kit  
[http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/logged\_in/fsharples\_detectionkit.html](http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/logged_in/fsharples_detectionkit.html)

or just google search for ways of detecting and redirecting/replacing content based on whether or not the user has flash or the right version of flash installed.
