Hi, folks. I don’t know AS2 well, prefering 3.0, however the project should be in 2.0. So, I have 2 movieclips, one is parent, another - loaded through LoadMovie(“name.swf”, \_root);

I need to unload child after its played and stoped. How can I do it in most proper way? Shoud I place somekind of listener?
