Something that may work for you is to have your movie clip that you dont want seen anymore “unload” when you press your button.

so as an example you would have - Load movie clip on layer 2 and unload movie on layer 1 on the same button.

I dont have flash here with me so I cannot give you the exact code. That should work.
