No, but it might AFFECT it.
Search engines typically will base their results on the text/html on a page, not flash, pictures, etc.
Engines don’t look at flash at all.
Unless your site is 100% flash you shouldn’t have a problem.

google, yahoo etc all getting smarter ;)
basic flash elements will not effect your ranking at all
Don’t use a flash menu and don’t put text in flash. Use Flash banners and you’ll be fine
Go for it – we have developed several site for clients with some flash and these sites are highly ranked for the important keywords as well. Just make sure that you have some text available for the search engines to read.
