Well,

As it turns out the "web-safe" colors no longer are, that you can get
color-shifts, and you may be running into this. There's a good article
about this on webmonkey. The article mentions that Flash uses a
"proprietary" plug-in to get/give color. They say this gives it advantages
(versus using gifs) when putting graphics into background color, but they
are talking about *within* a Flash movie and go on to note that the
color-shift problem still exists.

and they show you the "really" safe colors at:

e_palette.html

pretty funny .. as they say, hope you like green...

Don't know if this is actually your exact problem, but it is worth noting
anyway....
