When I load an external SWF into my UI SWF using [FONT=Courier New][COLOR=Blue]MovieClipLoader.loadClip()[/COLOR][/FONT], does the external SWF get cached?

Therefore, if the user tries to reload a SWF that had been previously loaded, the SWF will load from the local HDD instead of the website, right?

In my case, caching of content is important to reduce bandwidth usage.
