 Here is the WORKAROUND that helped me:

 1. '''Download'''. I have downloaded SWFUploader 2.2.0.1 (from here:
 http://code.google.com/p/swfupload/downloads/detail?name=SWFUpload%20v2.2.0.1%20Core.zip)
 and I have extracted zip archive.

 2. '''Backup'''. In the Wordpress directory ''wp-includes/js/swfupload/''
 I have renamed files ''swfupload.swf'' and ''swfupload.js'' to
 ''swfupload.swf.old'' and ''swfupload.js.old''. Also I have renamed all
 ''*.js'' files in ''wp-includes/js/swfupload/plugins/'' directory to
 ''*.js.old''.

 3. '''Replace'''. Then I have copied new files ''swfupload.js'' and
 ''swfupload.swf'' to ''wp-includes/js/swfupload/'' directory. Also I have
 copied all ''*.js'' files from SWFUploader 2.2.0.1 package ''/plugins/''
 directory to ''wp-includes/js/swfupload/plugins/'' directory.


 Flash uploader '''works for my IDN site now!'''


 Please note, hat you have to clear your browser cache. I thought it didn't
 work at first. I still received "security error". But then I tried a
 different browser with a clear cache and all of sudden I get my files
 uploaded!

 Thank you dkwo for the tip.
