An example of what i'm talking about can be found here:

I'll tell you the much easier way to do this:
Open a new flash document
Click the timeline and press F6 4 times (or however many images you have)
you should now have a number of empty keyframe on the top
in each keyframe, press F9 to open up the actions layer and type:
stop();
then, on the stage, put the image you want, then right click on each image and press "convert to symbol", choose "button" and press OK
now you should have 4 buttons on 4 different keyframes
single-click each of the buttons and press F9 to open up the actions layer
type in the following code:
on(release){
getURL("
http://www.yourlink.com", "_blank");
}
obviously replace the bold with the website you wish to link to.
now you have 4 working buttons on 4 different keyframes
now add a rectangle with some text on top saying "next", right click - convert to symbol - button - ok
click the button - F9 to open up the actions layer and type the following:
on(release){
this.nextFrame();
}
now add another rectangle with some text on top saying "previous", right click - convert to symbol - button - ok
click the button - F9 to open up the actions layer and type the following:
on(release){
this.prevFrame();
}
that should work fine
