A:
PDFs and PowerPoint files can be displayed as SWF directly, without any conversion on your side, using Google Docs Viewer. The files can be hosted on your server, must be accessible through a public URL though... This article explains how you can easily embed the viewer to display a file from a given URL.
As klausbyskov wrote, you could convert the word files to PDFs and then use Google Docs Viewer to display the PDFs. Converting word files requires word to be installed on the server! This SO post explains how you can convert word files to PDFs from .Net.

You can use:
Adobe FlashPaper Or Print2Flash

I guess these are both windows applications that cannot be used programmatically?

Print2Flash is as simple as running a command linep2fserver.exe c:\1.docx c:\1.swfto convert document, i have already created service for convertion process, request initiated by asp.net page.You can use free edition to convert document as well, but it will show it's logo in converted document, i prefer "Pro mode" which is around 80$.problem with FlashPaper is adobe has stopped it's support.

The Alfresco DMS uses OpenOffice to convert Word to PDF and then PDF2SWF to convert PDF to Flash.
(edit) The conversion process is managed by http://www.artofsolving.com/opensource/jodconverter
