Is it at all possible to override the stage variable of a loaded swf from the base swf?

I have a number of games which I need to load into a micro-site. I’m getting a #1009 error because the loaded swfs are trying to access the stage. I don’t have any access to the source of these games, so I’m trying to think how I can get these suckers to work.

Any idea’s or tricks most appreciated.
