the movie thumbnail.swf loads on level 1 and has on its  
timeline the mc stripmask ;

\_level1.gotoAndStop(“2”); action is placed on a frame of mc stripmask  
timeline ;

but the thing does not happen as planned and the movie runs out of control ;  
it looks like it goes to the frame 1 in the root of level 1 and plays on and on mc stripmask ;

any hint my dear friends ?

Thank you all
