I don't usually mess with MySpace all that much, but assuming that it is something like the code at Embedding a Media File: YouTube, you might try inline styles and the border value.

Assuming the code you get from YouTube is something like:
Code: <object width="425" height="355">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/FKNIgPpw-i4&rel=1"></param>
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/FKNIgPpw-i4&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355">
</embed>
</object>
You might try adding the style="border:0px":
Code: <object width="425" height="355" style="border:0px">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/FKNIgPpw-i4&rel=1"></param>
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param>
<embed style="border:0px" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/FKNIgPpw-i4&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355">
</embed>
</object>
Or even the deprecated HTML attribute border - depending on how MySpace allows you to control the code:
Code: <object width="425" height="355" border="0">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/FKNIgPpw-i4&rel=1"></param>
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param>
<embed border="0" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/FKNIgPpw-i4&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355">
</embed>
</object>
Note that the style / border is placed in both the <object> and the <embed> elements.
