OK I've narrowed it down to when IE is set to "never check" or "automatic" for page update checking in the settings - I can't believe there's so little information out there on such a serious bug. I had to completely scrap using the MovieClip Loader, fortunately there's a few AS2 conversions of qlod which slotted neatly in.
I wonder if flash 9 will have similar problems with its Loader events?
