preloader in a movieclip?

[sure54]

Hi there maestros,
i gotta problem with my website, here it goes:

there's a main flash movie with a space in the right wich displays an interactive animation.This animation is a movieclip symbol and it's huge at kb size, so i'd like it to be preloaded. I programmed a preload bar at the beggining of that movieclip but it doesn't seem to work right...
Can it be cause preloaders cannot be placed in movieclips draged in the main movie?
do i have to put the preloader in the main movie?
trouble site is http://www.discolondoner.com ....the first time you acces the site, the animation doesn't loads..then, you reload the page (f5) and it works...

Sorry for my English
Zanx for reading and helping
muchas gracias:

try making your interactive section into a seperate .swf with it's own preloader then use load movie to load it into your little box over there.
