If possible, generate a new swf which embeds the current flash swf & disable its mouse events, using:

mc.mouseEnabled = false;

You can control the new swf by defining an ExternalInterface & calling from javascript, using:

document.getElementById('flash-obj').ExternalMethodInFlash();

no, the link is managed by flash plugin.

At most you can just overlap the flash object with an element (with a transparent background) so the link is not clickable (but this is not a real solution since it can be circumvented)

You cannot do that, since Flash "lives in it's own world" in the browser. All JavaScript sees is an object, it doesn't know what's in there.
