I have a swf file that have 2 images-buttons, with its text description (a short title in static text). The 2 buttons have the following actions

on (press) {  
loader\_mc.loadMovie (“xxxxx.swf”);  
}

Afther pushing the image buttons to go to the xxxx.swf file (that are all text) the button area is still active over the text (the blank hand-cursor appears when I drag the mouse to this area) and I can push over the text to reload de file.

How can I remove the active area in the xxxx.swf files ?

Thanks in advance
