WHy whenever I put a preloader on first frame of movie (alone with just simlpe 2frame animation) the download simulator (@56k) doesnt show the preloader animation until the entire movie is about 85% loaded?

How do I get the animation to show imediatly?

eg: this code  
if (\_framesloaded\>=\_totalframes) { gotoAndPlay (2);} else { gotoAndPlay (1);}  
then a very small animation are only things in first frame
