Javascript worked for me for something like that...check hotscripts.com or resourceindex.com, maybe even dynamicdrive.com

[Mod Note]I merged the threads as it's the same question/topic[/End Note]

I personally think loosing some of the animations would help a lot, the title logo for example is 30.7kb, then you have animated guest book, email, music note and banners at the bottom, plus the flash which just repeats, maybe add a "play again" button.
Considering you have all this happening it didn't take to long to load on 56k as one would think.

Here are some sites with tutorials for creating a preloader at the beginning of your flash timeline. I haven't looked at them in a while so you may need to just go through them to find one you can easily follow.
