Animated GIF's not working... help please

Animated gifs aren't working in any of my browsers. I've tried viewing animated gifs using IE, Opera, and Firefox. None of them worked... however, I am able to view animated gifs in msn messenger. Do you any of you know what to do?

 

lots of times popup blocker or firewall software stop gif's from animating.. if you have any security software like this installed, try disabling it and testing to see if they animate once more.

 

I agree with Kodo, do you have ZoneAlarm installed?

Yea, I have ZoneAlarm installed. Are there any settings I can change to make gifs work?

I turned off ZoneAlarm and animated smilies and most animated gifs are working.

But, some animated gifs... such as this one : http://www.exrx.net/AnimatedEx/OlympicLifts/PushPress.gif arent working for me.

 

Open Zone Alarm
Go to 'PRIVACY' TAB > AD BLOCKING > CUSTOM
There should be an "animated" setting listed, just uncheck and retry.

Thanks, that worked.

However, http://www.exrx.net/AnimatedEx/OlympicLifts/PushPress.gif is still not working. Can someone else see if that works for them?

 

Hmmm, this works fine, but then again, I'm not running ZA. I'm using sygate personal firewall.

@MetaCrumbie: Thanks for the info, I have yet to run into that situation, but a tip is a tip. Gotta learn something everyday. I'll jump on the bandwagon of learning something from MG. Though, I can't say that I learned everything here!

 

Good for you! Next time, spell my name right.

OK?
