I've swapped PC's in the last few days and now noticed that my smiley faces are not animated anymore i.e. this does not bounce anymore

Any ideas??

Not one of those new dodgy TVR PCs is it? Probably needs a rebuild. They all do that, Sir!

Found my problem!! Not surprisingly its firewall related! ZA Pro seemed to be treating animated gifs as ads so all I had to do was turn off ad blocking.

EDIT: Got it now. Can keep ad blocking off but allow animations using custom button.

I've picked up loads of em (smiley Gifs etc.) all over the web, some pretty good ones to. If you'd like them, I can zip and send by email or whatever.

Send 'em over. If there are some nice ones in there then I'll certainly add them in.

I've seen this problem in IE6 too... haven't really done anything to investigate it but everything starts animating again when the PC is rebooted..
