Hello all:

I’m getting this error when I try to run my flash movie in the html file and the standalone flash player locally. Does anyone know anything about this?

_a script in this movie is causing Macromedia Flash Player 8 to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?_

\*\*Thanks!
