I think that you are going to have to provide an attachment of your main FLA movie. The one that loads the others into it and contains the preloader part. It's a little hard to tell from that what's going wrong with it.

Try this.

Divide your movies in 3 scenes.

1st Scene: Preloader
Contains your preloader, i think, the one your're using is wright.
Just, remember to jump to the Main Scene when you finished it.

2nd Scene: Dummy ¡Very Important!
On this scene, you must drop all movieclips you will include later on the Main scene with "attachMovie" from your movie library.

3rd Scene: Main
All the movieclips you drop on the dummy scene, you must set link/attach properties like this...

- Export for ActionScript (Checked)
- Export in the first frame (UNCHECKED) ¡¡ IMPORTANT !!

Followin those steps, the flash player don't load anything before the first frame, where I think you put the text "loading..."

P.D.: Excuse me for my english.
