    for some reason my browser (firefox and IE) stopped showing animated gifs, i tried clearing my cache but it didnt work i tried looking through the options but i never saw anything about it. altough i can view gifs on my machine, but i dont want to have to save all the gifs just to view them

    any ideas what might be wrong?

    if not, clear ur ie and firefox memory, (visited websites, cookies etc) see if that works

    he said it doesnt work for both FF and IE. Well only thing i can think of is uninstall both browsers then reinstall one of them to see if it works or not then install the other one and see then :D

    Lol, i had this same problem a while ago...Open up Zone Alarm, find ad control, and uncheck "hide animations."

    the problem is zone alram (at least it was for me)

    under privacy (tab on the side) so to ad blocking and choose custom, there should now be a checked box blocking animatiions

    If EVER in doubt, check Zone Alarm as a last resort.
