A script in this movie is causing Macromedia Flash Player to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script? \>\> Y \>\>N

…  
The problem is that this flash-site has many movieclips and I just have no idea where the error is coming from!

Check your script for while-loops and for-loops. For example, this would cause that problem:

```auto

for (i = 1; i>0; i++) {
  trace("This will go on for eternity, since i will always be more than 0");
}

//this will do the same thing
i = 1;
while (i = 1) {
  trace("This will go on for eternity, since i doesn't change");
}

```

EDIT: BTW, I like the site 🙂
