Subject: [Swftools-common] preloader not working on IE7

Hi there,

I have just uploaded http://ousia.justfree.com/output.swf that is mainly 
a sprite with a preloader (script below).

For some strange reason, the preloader works with both Firefox 2 and 
Opera 9 plus Flash 10 (both are on my Linux system). In Linux using IE5, 
IE55 and I6 with Wine plus Flash 9 works the preloader also fine. But in 
real WinXP, IE7 and Flash 10, the preloader doesn't work at all.

The sprite itself doesn't work, but I'm not interested in this right now.

Could anyone test this with IE in WinXP and tell me whether the 
preloader works or not?

Thanks for your help,


Pablo
