setting _adContainter.enabled = false; doesnt work. (this is the one that
contains the loaded swf);
I have tried using MovieClipLoader and then doing the masking and the event
listening after the load too
If you would like i can do you an example with that method too.
I have tried making a "mouse trap" over the top and it didnt work, ill try
again and do you a version 2 mins..
