Hi all. Need some help here! I am using:

loadMovieNum(“icon1.swf”, target1\_mc);

I am trying to build a presentation by calling external .swfs inside the .fla document.

By clicking a button I want to load an .swf (800 x 600) from the desktop into a target\_mc inside a new flash document.

The problem is that once I press the button to load the .swf, instead of loading it into the target\_mc, Internet Explorer pos up with a statement saying " To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this file from showing active content that could access your computer. Click here for options…" Once I click the options link, a new link appears “Allow Blocked Content”. once I press it the .swf file loads into the Internet Explorer window full screen.

What is this??? I want the .swf to load into the mc I am specifying INSIDE the flash document, not on the browser.
