Problems loading xml in Firefox but nor IE

Hi, I'm testing two web applications under Firefox (Flash player plug-in) and
IE (Flash player activeX). Both try to load data from XML files. However, while
changing fast the XML source, usually Firefox Flash stops responding and data
is not loaded. In order to reproduce the problem, check out the
www.ciclope.art.br/main.htm site (it's in English). When, at a flow, I create
an image that, at next state desappears, returning at the next state, the
Firefox Flash version does not load the proper XML and I just get an empty
image. This does not happen using IE. A direct link to this experience is:

Please access it using both IE and Firefox and you'll notice the problem after
2 or 3 animation loops on Firefox.

You may be having problems with onLoad or onClipEvent(load) which I
have found to fail in Firefox.

Unfortunately this is not the case. I'm facing a similar problem with the site
www.sertoes.art.br/main.htm. Here, if you pass the video very fast, Firefox
Flash stops reponding and you do not load the XML info for the videos anymore.
I'm considering this to be a XML problem because I checked the data loaded, and
nothig is loaded by Firefox version after the problem occurs.
