This one is a good one to look at.

This one is helpful but will give a much bigger preloader, but useful
for reference.

Also I seem to remember that if you are going to run a swf animation for
the preloader, create it using AS2.  Keeps performance up as the flash
player can run AS2 and AS3 code at the same time.
