you need to use a HTML page, if you want to make the flash movie the intro then u need to make the HTML page called "index.html" as this is always the first page that is loaded by the internet servers, u need to use some intresting looking code, this is some code genereated by Dreamweaver (made by Macromedia, same peeps who created Flash) from my school when i put a flash movie intro i made into my website, i dont know if it'll work with you, and i expect there are better ways to make this work, but it this way will download Flash player if the user doesnt have it and stuff. At least thats what i think it does.

Code: (note: is : D without the space, Admin: it is possible to stop that happening?)

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
  codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/flash4/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0"
  id="intro" width="500" height="400">
<param name="movie" value="intro.swf">
      <param name="quality" value="high">
      <param name="bgcolor" value="#666666">
      <embed name="intro" src="intro.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#666666"
    width="500" height="400"
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
    pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"> 
      </embed> </object>

you just need to change the values depending what u need them to be, if you have any problems PM or email me with ur flash file and i'll make the html file for ya
