Flash Header w/ Music; stop reloading

Hello all!

I have a site with a flash-animated header. This part works fine.
This header has music that plays as part of the flash file. The music plays fine.

I am using zencart 1.3.5 currently.
Problem:
If I click on a link in zen-cart to look at products, ez-pages, whatever; the flash reloads and the music restarts. I don't want the music to restart.

Prior to moving over to zencart, I had the site setup inside of iframes to handle this problem. (Yes, I know the evils of frames, spare me the lecture) Is there a way in zencart to get this functionality to work?

I've dug through the forums and google looking for answers, and have not gotten to a satisfactory solution at this point.

There was mention of a "IFrame" modification, but I can't locate that either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
-Jason

You need to alter your flash file to set a cookie of sorts, with perhaps a 1-hour expiry, and check the cookie to see whether it should play the music or not. Could apply to animation as well.
