Man. this is really urgent. I hope someone has a simple solution.

I have a intro for this page that is basically a slide show. Now there is a button on the stage that lets u skip it. Button load a swf into a movie clip but the root (intro) keeps on sucking pictures that no one sees. Can i make it stop loading root´s timeline when the button is pressed. I have no time to redesign so i would need a quick solution.
