No one listens. Movie Clips don't work across Scenes.
Two solutions:
1) Combine your Scenes into a single scene.
2) Put the sound on/off in a Load Movie in a higher level.

Changing to percentages in a site that uses bitmaps is not normally a
good idea.
It is ideal for sites constructed with only vectors or ones using
bitmaps for backgrounds only (but you have to check how the bitmaps are
likely to display at various sizes). One option is to make your bitmap
images hybrids. Place vector versions of text over the text in the
bitmaps. You may want to airbrush the text area of the bitmap
dependinding on the text fit. Likewise change basic shapes to vectors.
In the Touch Screen diplay change the console to a vector and leave only
the photo of the people as a bitmap. In your site you use a lot of
bitmaps converting it to a resizable version would take some time.

Also since you designed for a full screen aspect ratio (600/440 or 1.36)
you should consider openning up in a new window without chrome (no
location, toolbars etc.).

These things are best considered at the beginning of a project.
