You were right I google my way in and I put an eventlistener
(complete) to see when it is loaded and now it is working.
here is the solution for those interested.
var contactLoader:Loader = new Loader();
contactLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
onCompleto);
function onCompleto(e:Event):void{
var utop:MovieClip = contactLoader.content as MovieClip;
utop.buttonX.buttonMode=true;
utop.buttonX.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, closeMe);
function closeMe(e:MouseEvent):void{
removeChild(contactLoader);
}
trace("completo");
}
contactLoader.load(new URLRequest("contactUs.swf"));
addChild(contactLoader);
trace("contact");
}//contact Us Function

Gus

you can't access another swf's timeline till its loaded. Look at
what your

load in
