I did a search on the forum 'cause I have a problem with my preloader and found this thread. However, after reading it all, I’m sorry to say that I still do not get it.

So can somebody please try to help me out on this?

My movie has 3 frames in the main timeline. The first 2 contain the preloader taken from the tutorial by lostinbeta ([http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/percentagepreloader.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/percentagepreloader.htm)).

In the third frame I have my content and I’m loading an external jpeg using loadMovie() into an mc.  
When I test the movie using ‘Show Streaming’ the preloader pops up when the percentage is already 40%.

Who can help me fix this problem?

Thanks a million.
