A little more info? You don't have the .fla?
What the exact code?

I have a movie clip but only the swf file....no fla file so there is no code. It is linked already but I want a way to change the link. Even if I put something over it like another transarent layer that has a link or something along those lines. Anything will do.

if you importing this swf into another at run time then try adding this to frame 1 of the main swf

MovieClip.prototype.onRelease = function(){
}

it just may override the code on the clip

If Instructor Bill's proposal doesn't work... You can simply load this .swf in a container clip, and add an invisible button over the existing link, with your new link.
If that link is not available throughout the .swf and only some part of it, you could monitor a range of frames (through a control clip), and only set your own invisible button on that range of frames.
