Hello, I’m very new to flash and since I can’t still do my own codes I downloaded a code off an open source page to add it to a web page I’m doing.

The HUGE problem is that the movieclip I downloaded keeps playing on every frame I add (1-120), I’ve been trying to fix that for the past 16 hrs with no luck, I have added keyframes with “stop, removeMovieClip, unloadMovie, unloadMovieclip” at the ends, beginning and middle of every frame in the movie and no luck, if it stops playing then it stops forever and not just for the frames that I want.  
I have even added several objects trying to hide the movie, I have also masked frames, layers, objects and it just remains there playing over my text boxes.

Hopefully I’ll be successful at adding the .fla file to this post.

Is there any suggestion anybody could give me? Anything would be very appreciated.

Thank you.

ok, surprisingly enough I couldn’t attach the zip file so I just uploaded it to this address:

Thanks again.

No problem, thanks a lot for taking the time to check that out.  
The thing is that I can’t ask the creator of the file because it’s an “as is” thing.  
But I guess I’ll just have to delete the whole thing and try to redo it myself.  
Thank you!!
