Hi!

I’m trying to use the tutorial found here:

[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/percentagepreloader.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/percentagepreloader.htm)

for my site. I always thought that this tutorial looked easy and recommended it to many friends. But now that I’m using it myself it seems to jump to 7% and go from there. Fairly annoying.

Anybody got a clue why?
