Flash does not cache at all.
But if you have a swf running in the browser, all requests will be
routed through the browser.
This means that the browsers cache will eventually catch requests and
return the cached version of a file.
You can _always_ circumvent caching by using unique URLs, for example by
appending a random variable to the query:
http://abc.org/file.swf?random=12235234
You can not rely on the cache. It is depending on browser settings and
the capability of the webserver to cope with conditional requests.
HTH,
Timo
