In your preloader movie put the gallery in frame3
change this

if (bytes_loaded ==                                  bytes_total) {
                                 this.gotoAndPlay(3);

in

if (bytes_loaded ==                                  bytes_total) {
                                 this.gotoAndStop(3);

Or if you test your movie (CTRL+Enter), hit CTRL+Enter again to simulate a download, you can set the setting (modem, cable etc) in the View menu (I believe that what it is in MX).
Or what’s happening is that your movie is too “small” since in the gallery you load all the images;)
Btw, in the code of the gallery is “room” for a preloader:)
