var mcHolder:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mcHolder",
this.getNextHighestDepth());
var mclLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var oListener:Object = new Object();
mclLoader.addListener(oListener);

oListener.onLoadInit = function(mcContent:MovieClip) {
mcContent._xscale = 35;
mcContent._yscale = 35;
}

mclLoader.loadClip("http://192.168.1.185/bostonusa/images/stories/backbay.gif
", _root.popup1.image_mc);

Hi,
I am sorry i do not know if there is a work-around, but you can convert your image to png instead, or try to search in google how to import extranl GIF into Flash.
