Are you running a firewall? You may have to lower your
settings or even shut down the firewall.
I had this problem when I first installed ZoneAlarm, I
wasn't able to even see animation (Animated Gifs, such as
on forum avatars/sigs).
Eventually I got online enough and messed around with
ZoneAlarm until everything was back to normal.
