Are you getting any other error? Your code looks correct, and I just ran it and it worked for me.

var loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, materialComplete);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, ioErrorHandler);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, materialProgress);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(material);
try {
loader.load(request);
} catch (e) {
stat.text = “Error Loading File.”;
}

ioerrorevent does not trigger when the file is not found :S
