AS3 mouseClick ignore a movieclip

Is there a way in AS3 to make a the mouse ignore a certain movieclip? I need it to be on top of the other movieclips (due to transparancy effects), but have it in a way that allows clicking on the movieclips underneath it. I know about ".mouseChildren = false", but that only makes all the stuff inside that movieclip unclickable, but it still functions as a "barrier" on top of all the others buttons.

Is there a way to do this, or do I need to remove it completely ?

You need to set both .mouseChildren and .mouseEnabled to false before you can click on objects behind the MovieClip. This makes the mouse ignore the objects within the MovieClip and the MovieClip itself.
