It's not Macromedia trying to save us from ourselves it's more a case of
imposing some limits. Without going into technical details, but I will
if requested, this is a sensible limit, removing it could lead to
serious player crashes in all os's and browsers.

No in this case it was refering to the group of actions you enclosed in
the infinite loop 'while(true)'. It just means that the group of actions
enclosed in this loop was executed more than 200000 times. Don't forget
that some actions can be executed in something like 250ns or less so
beware of loops especially while(true) loops. In the second case I'm not
to happy with the if test. The solution I sent in an earlier post avoids
this and works. A final statment requires more testing or some feedback
from others that have already tested this.
