Let's see some code. It sounds like you might be stuck in a loop where
you are waiting for the value of something to change before proceeding.
If it takes too long for that value to change and you continue to loop
you will timeout your script and get the alert. You might be better off
using event handling and dispatch an event when you're ready to proceed
this way Flash isn't tied up in a loop.

I have a complex web site that does some early xml loading as well as
loading another movie (an intro) in a higher level. On rare occasions,
I'm getting the alert about a slow-running script in Flash, which
freezes the movie. Clicking "yes" to abort the script, then refreshing
the page, solves the problem for that instance. By the way, this can
happen even after a successful loading of the movie, so it's NOT an
issue of something not being cached.
I've tried a lot of restructuring of how things load, and the problem
now occurs less frequently, but it's still happening.
Does anyone know exactly what that alert means? Is it ALWAYS a looping
script, for instance? What other things might cause it? This is a tough
one to troubleshoot.
The problem is recently occurring in Win I.E. 7, but has been known to
happen in FireFox 1.5 and in other browsers.
thanks,
Marc
