One way to tackle this is to load your SWF into an empty base SWF.

By the way this is not a CS3 specific issue but existed since Flash 5.

Hi list,
I am starting a website, and I am using Flash CS3 (document Class) with
Flash Develop, and I am using an .FLA File just to put the assets into the
library.
Now I am wondering how could I create a root preloader which will pop up
at the beginning of the SWF file (there is only one swf file).
How could I achieve this, if all the assets are loaded in the first frame of
the swf file? at this case the preloader wont show unless all the library is
loaded on runtime.

Is there a way to load the library items in a second shot?

Thanks for the help.

Than calling its classes normally? It will work?

Yes, why wouldn't? ...but I suppose root would change to the base SWF 
if you're using it to access the main timeline of the loadee.

You could also try setting the ActionScript export frame to 2 and put
your preloader on frame 1.
