Flash Animation Does Not Refresh

I've created a Captivate demo that has an animated flash segment in the middle of it. This demo was developed for a trade show and was designed to loop so it can run automatically throughout the day. Plays great through the first pass. Problem is, after it has run once, the flash animation does not refresh and play. Only the blank slides are shown. Same thing happens if you play the demo then try to rewind to play one of the animated sequences.

If I hit F5 to refresh the browser it plays. How can I get this animation file to refresh automatically so it does not require human intervention to refresh?

Thanks!

    Do you have your last side set to go to slide 1 as your way of repeating? Try setting it to open other project and just point it at itself, this will make it reopen the project from scratch (set it to open in the same window). It will have to reload of course, but should work as designed.
