If you mean compress and make smaller in order to send via e-mail, 7-Zip is a free utility that will compress any file.
If you mean compress in its native state so it can fit on a single CD for example, Handbrake is a free utility that allows you to take an avi and convert it to an avi of a specific size or change the format if you need to.
Google for both.

Audio Video Interleave (AVI) is a special case of Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF). AVI is defined by Microsoft. The .avi file format is the most common format for audio and video data on a computer. Audio content or video content that is compressed with a wide variety of codecs can be stored in an .avi file and played in Windows Media Player.
It all depends on how to compress the file. if you convert SWF to AVI with high quality then it will take more space. If you select a codec, or set the level of quality for the output file below it, and AVI file will weigh less.
Converting a program to video is practically impossible, but you may CAPTURE a running program into an AVI video format using a video-capture program.
