Is it possible to create a preloader which shows precentage in Flash 5?

I was wondering because I always thought that Flash 5 didn’t support the important ‘getBytesLoaded’ in AS to make such a preloader like in Flash MX. But lately I looked at the [www.carve.com](http://www.carve.com) website and I saw a percentage preloader, while only Flash 5 is needed to view that site.

Hopefully someone can answer my question!
