I've started using shared libraries on a new site of mine. Unfortunately I've had to take it right back down again, because of this problem (does anyone else get this):

All the loading screens on the 8 page site get the movieclip of a spinning hourglass from a shared library file. When the pages are loading for the first time all goes well.
However, once users have viewed the pages for the first time, and it's saved into the temporary cache, if they return to the address at a later date the page finishes loading but it's stuck on the loading screen. In essence, the swf is loaded in, but it doesn't seem to get any further than the first frame of the loading screen which is a black screen.
I've worked with loading screens before (but not shared libraries) and am wondering if this is the problem.
It's a pain in the arse!
