Preload will download the entire thing, and use a *lot* of hard drive 
space, plus taking forever. You would need to loop forever on a frame, 
checking netDone()

>If not how can I load the movie?

I haven't tried streaming video, but this works for me with streaming audio:

   gSoundObj = new(#swa)
   gSoundObj.url = swaFile
   gSoundObj.stop()
   gSoundObj.streamName = swaFile
   gSoundObj.preLoadTime = 5
   gSoundObj.preLoadBuffer()

then wait for gSoundObj.state=2

That preloads 5 seconds of audio. I would imagine you could do the same 
with a QuickTime movie, though you might want to preload more than 5 
seconds to prevent buffer underrun.

Cordially,
