It is easy to get an MIAW to crash a projector if the MIAW originates the 
request to kill itself.  Effectively you pull the rug out from under its 
feet.  This usually does not happen in authoring mode (another reminder to 
test in projectors, especially with MIAWs).

You say you are closing them from the stopMovie in the main movie - 
presuming you mean the root stage.  Who told the stage to stop?  Because if 
one of the MIAWs told the stage to halt, and then the stage calls its 
stopMovie, which shuts down the MIAWs, it still originated with a MIAW, and 
could crash.

Is this the case with yours?  Does the trail in any way go back to the MIAW 
as the originator?
