This means that because you used the --accept option, and specified a 
list allowable file types as 'swf' only, that anything not matching 
that suffix should be discarded.

The reason the switchlinux directory is empty is because there is 
nothing in this directory on the remote server other than the 
index.html file, which was rejected.

Apparently they moved this flash file to some other server, as 
evidenced by the SRC= tag in the index.html file.  The new location 
appears to be:

Hope that helps.

	It may look like I'm just sitting here doing nothing,
   but I'm really actively waiting for all my problems to go away.
