Ok... let me see if I followed that correctly.

You have:
Sniffer > Entrance (HTML) > Flash (430k)

Why not:
combine these: Entrance (HTML) + Flash (430k) and have:
Sniffer > Entrance (FLASH 430k)

Since you know they have flash from the sniffer, just send them to a
flash file (that is preloading) that gives them an option to continue in
flash or go to an html version, or in other words, a flash version of
your 'Flash or HTML site entrance'. This stops the process of knowing
they have flash and sending them to an html page only to send them to
another flash page. So now they can decide to continue in flash, or go
to html all the while your 430k movie is loading.
