The .swf being loaded should reside in the same directory as the movie 

calling it. Otherwise, you need to use a relative path to let Flash know 

where it's stored. The first way is a lot easier. If this is not the cause 

of your problem, write back.


As an aside: if you load a movie into level 0 it will replace the main 

movie. Use any level other than 0 to avoid this.
