Hi badapp1e :-)
You don't mention the version of Windows you are using, which really is a
must when asking for help in the newsgroups, but, try the following and see
if it helps:
Why don't my animated gifs animate?
http://inetexplorer.mvps.org/archive/answers.htm#ani_gif
Take note of the mention of firewalls like @Guard as others like Zone
Alarm Pro and NIS may also have a disable option.
also...
Zone Alarm Pro can prevent animation from working. If you have it installed
open the programme, go to the Privacy Tab and click on the custom button and
be sure that the option to block animation is turned to OFF.
Make sure your .gifs are associated to Internet Explorer. Click on a .gif in
windows explorer, IE should open to display it. :
Try Doug Knox's script utility:
http://www.dougknox.com/utility/scripts_desc/fixpix.htm
IE>Internet Options>Advanced tab>Multimedia section>"Play animations in web
pages">Apply>OK out.
or....
Go to Start>Run and type in the window:
regsvr32.exe /i shdocvw.dll (all versions of IE) ... and then
regsvr32.exe /i shdoc401.dll (IE5 upwards)
If using WindowsME the command is:
regsvr32.exe /i thumbvw.dll
You should soon see a *succeeded* dialogue box after each command.
Click ok, and then reboot

I do not know what changed in my system but animated GIFs just stopped
working. I have gone into Internet tools and made sure the "play
animations"
in browser is selected. (Multimedia). Have also search the Microsoft
Knowledge base and did not find any solution there either. It may be
something simple but what?
Would appreciate any help.
Thank you.
