movie clip is looping why

[johnnyv]

hello

I am playing around with creating a 'site' all in flash. the website will be made up of 3 different MC's. 2 of the MC's will load on startup teh thrid will load depending on which button may be pushed. I can get all of the movies to load but they loop.
2 of teh MC's have animation in them and it appears as if the MC is loading and running but when it reachs teh end of teh MC it starts all over again

why is this

hope this makes sence I am new at this and am not completely sure of what's going on

thanks for any replys

By default mcs will loop. Add a stop(); action on a last keyframe in your mc.
