Hi,

I am looking to kill this script out after a certain length of time...

	init = function () {
	width = 728;
	// pixels 
	height = 90;
	// pixels 
	max_snowsize = 30;
	// pixels 
	snowflakes = 30;
	// quantity 
	for (i=0; i<snowflakes; i++) {
		t = attachMovie("snow", "snow"+i, i);
		t._alpha = 50+Math.random()*60;
		t._x = -(width/2)+Math.random()*(1.5*width);
		t._y = -(height/2)+Math.random()*(1.5*height);
		t._xscale = t._yscale=50+Math.random()*(max_snowsize*10);
		t.k = 1+Math.random()*2;
		t.wind = -1.5+Math.random()*(1.4*3);
		t.onEnterFrame = mover;
	}
};
mover = function() {
	this._y += this.k;
	this._x += this.wind;
	if (this._y>height+10) {
		this._y = -20;
	}
	if (this._x>width+20) {
		this._x = -(width/2)+Math.random()*(1.5*width);
		this._y = -20;
	} else if (this._x<-20) {
		this._x = -(width/2)+Math.random()*(1.5*width);
		this._y = -20;
	}
}
init();

Does anyone know how I would go about doing this?

I'm not sure... but try something like this

var timer;
function onLoad()
{
timer = 0;
}
function onEnterFrame(){
timer += 1;
}

if(timer > 30){
//leave blank, or alternate code
}
else{
//code to be killed
}

if the fps is 30, this will kill the code after 30 frames (1 second) because the var "timer" goes up 1 every frame, and the code will only happen if the timer is less than 30. You can adjust the "30" to fit your need.
if you want to reset you could add

if(timer > *reset time*){
timer = 0;
}
