linking from within a flash site to another

I have this site, which I did to put up until I'm finished with the 3d site.
Which by the way I am excited about. Anyway, I am trying to link a mc symbol
to another webpage. How do I do that with a fully flash site? I created this
site totally in flash. That is everything except the photos which I created in
photoshop. Yep those boxes are not really boxes on the services page. I keep
getting off track. Can someone go to the clients page and tell me how to (1)
control the graphic on the featured film icon with a rollover command and (2)
tell me how to link it to the featured films website (which is another website
I abandoned when I got the idea for the 3d site. But not to worry, I will
finish it. If you need the flash swf file to figure this out just let me know.
This site was actually a tutorial I got from free-webmaster-resource.com
(which by the way is no longer on the site) The guy did an acceptional job on
the tutorial but he didn't explain how to do the links. I suppose he forgot.
oh and before you send notice to me about it, I'd just like you to know that I
KNOW THE NAV BUTTONS DONT HAVE THE NAMES ON THEM! That was another thing the
guy forgot to explain in the tutorial. He did mention he would explain it but
never got back around to it. I guess it wasn't an acceptional job on the
tutorial after all.

Make this a button symbol, or, use a movieClip symbol and write an
onRollOver() method.

instanceName.onRelease() {
getURL("yourUrl.com","_blank");
