If you are like me and you have tried anything without success then try this.
For the particular folder, virtual folder or site add:

Extension: .*
Mime Type: application/octet-stream

I have added the required mime type to my server. Have also restarted IIS several times and have manually restarted the Web publishing service. However flv and mp4 files will still not show through the .swf player that have on my asp.net page. Works beautifully on my development machine which is XP pro.

You will need to restart the web publishing service
(open admin tools, services, world wide web publishing service)

After adding the MIME for .flv I can still only see wmv files on my server (using Media Server) and not FLV
