You would have to access the instance, get its first child (which should be flash.display.Loader) and call unload() on it. You should file a bug so we make this easier to do.

For example there are two flash movies that I use in my preloader. Now, after the prelaoded has done its work, I would want these movies to be garbage collected. However, it does not happen... I have verified it in the flex builder profiler. Does anybody know of a way of disposing embeded swf files after they are not needed any more? FYI, my embedded swf files are plain graphical assets, or simple animations. -Marcin
