Yariv,

Checking in a repeat loop doesn't give Lingo enough time to actually 
do the download - it's to busy checking.  Instead, change your code 
to check on exitFrame.  Something like this frame script:

property netID

on enterFrame me
   -- define file_url
   netID=preloadNetThing(file_url)
end

on exitFrame
   put getStreamStatus(netID)
   if netDone(netID) then
      go to the frame + 1
   else
      go to the frame
   end if
end
