I/O Error: Stream closed

Hello All -

I was validating my personal site - job hunting and thought I had better make sure everything goes through XHTML and CSS validators correctly. My homepage for XHTML didn't pass the validation due to the embed tag for the two small Flash files I have on the page. After looking around I found that I can use this code:

Code:

<objecttype="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="flash/nav.swf" width="400" height="50" align="middle">  <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
          <param name="movie" value="flash/nav.swf" />
          <param name="quality" value="high" />
          <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
          <param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
  </object>

It works fine as the files are small and the XHTML validator gave it the green light. Then I went to run it through the CSS validator and got this error: I/O Error: Stream closed.

I can bypass it by running the URL to my style sheet in the validator,
but it concerns me as a potential new employer may think there
is something wrong. Is there something wrong? What is the best
way to get a Flash movie on your site to pass the XHTML
validator?

Here is the address to my site I am validating:
