Large (26KB) BLANK scenes?!

[jrapczak]

I'm trying to create a preloader for my movie. However, whenever I create a new BLANK scene to use as the preloader it automatically has a size of 26kb! Thus the first frame won't even show until it has loaded 26KB of NOTHING. What is the deal here? I have tried deleting and creating blank scenes and every one is the same. While testing the movie I listed objects and variables and the only thing there is frame 1 and the version of the player... any suggestions?

You are porbably using Linkage. See the attachMovie tutorial. Linkage is used so you can dynamically attach sounds, movieclips (and components in Flash MX), and it requires that the content to be dynamically attached be loaded before the first frame of your movie, so the first frame always seems larger than it is.
