the error indicates that you are running code, probably
a loop, that is wrongly constructed and failing to finish,
so check all code for typos, correct construction etc..
copy/paste your code here if unable to correct it
and somebody might spot the error,
if code is MASSIVE, zip the fla and post to your server,
provide a link for download

I am working on a piece that occaisionally pops up with the script timeout
window .. while it only happens occaisionally, this piece is for an
installation, and I can't have that window popping up. I know the script won't
mess anything up because it gets right to the end of it before the window pops
up. My question is: is there a way to change the timeout from 15 seconds or am
I basically out of luck? I know director has an .ini file that you can edit
and change this, does Flash? I don't know of a way on PC's to increase Flash's
memory useage .. anybody? any help would be much appreciated ..

The error happens if Flash sits on the same layer for too long.
You can prevent the popup by dividing your code between two frames,

I am now having this problem whentrying to connect to our database multiple
times... I am worried that by moving the code it will not connect when it
should be connected... or that it will only be partially connected. how can i
close the loop so to speak. I will post the code when i get back to the office.
Thanks!
