Hi,

I am building a peloader which loads an external file. Simulate donwload has never really worked for me, it just flashes and shows my loader at 100%.

Does anyone have any tips to actually get this working?

I have flash cs3, publishing to FP9 and using a simple LOAD\_COMPLETE, onProgress function.

thanks
