FLASH: simple duplicate MC script crashing F5

[Matt Spiegler]

I'm trying to insert a simple duplicateMovieClip script into my movie,

but everytime I add it and try to preview it, I get a warning message

saying that a script is  causing flash to run slowly and my computer may

become unresponsive if the script is run!


Here's the script:


onClipEvent (load) {

    dupe = "1";

}

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

    if (dupe = 1) {

        duplicateMovieClip (_root.bg1, "box2", 2);

        dupe = "2";

    }

}


If I remove the script everything plays fine. I'm assuming I'm somehow

causing an infinite loop, but can't see where it's occurring. I tried to

write the script so that it would only dupe the MC once, then quit.
