You would start by having the movie clip symbol that contains the movie you want to play on the mouse over. Movie clip symbols have an independent timeline of the main movie so it can start and stop whenever without affecting your main flash object. You will then also make a button symbol and in the up state you put a graphic of whatever the button looks like. In the over state you will drag the movie clip symbol from the library to the stage. Depending on what you want to happen on the down ( have the movie continue to play or change to another graphic) you will do various things.
The action script for the button symbol will be on release go to whatever webpage.

I hope it works for you. Good luck.
