Locking position on stage?

Is there any way you can lock an external .swf’s postition on stage if you’ve loaded it into a emptymovieclip?

I have a fullscreen file that has an emptymovieclip in it and it loads an external .swf into that emptymovieclip - but when it does, it changes the alignment of the emptymovieclip to reflect whatever size of the external movieclip that is loaded into it and adjusts for it.

(does that make sense?)

THANKS!
