Then I think you should go with Zeh's suggestion: http://www.adobe.com/livedocs/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/display/LoaderInfo.html#swfVersion <http://www.adobe.com/livedocs/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/display/LoaderInfo.html#swfVersion>Checking if Loader has an unloadAndStop method defined will let you know if the player version is >= 10, but not what version the swf was published for.
