    Your movie doesn't even load at all. And the http://www.thedearborn.com/index.swf can't be found.

    It appears immediately on my cable connection and takes +/-12 seconds on my old 56k dial-up... So 12 seconds is too long for ya?

    If so stick a preloader onto it, so the slow connected users see something immediately.
