Facebook Connect integration: does it require flash?

I'm integrating a Flash-free web site with Facebook Connect.

Loading it in Internet Explorer 7 (only in IE 7, not IE 6 nor IE 8) I get the famous IE information bar saying that the current web site requires the Adobe Flash Player and asks me if I want to install it.

If I remove the code needed to the Facebook Connect integration (some facebook-hosted javascript files), IE does not ask me to install Flash anymore.

As I've already said my web site does not require Flash at all and with IE 6, IE 8, Firefox or any other browser I'm not asked to install the Adobe Flash Player.

Is this normal? Does Facebook Connect require Flash? Does it need Flash only with IE7?
