There's no default media handler for SWF files. Probably would be better as an extension.

There are several extensions available to handle inline display of SWFs:

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Flash
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Flash_Extension
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Flash_swf
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Flashow

(I'm not sure which is best, I haven't tried em.)

None of them look really ideal to me, but they should work.
