Animated gifs are dead

[tormodg]

After I installed vBadvanced none of my animated gifs are animated anymore...at least when browsed from my PC (IE and Firefox).

On my Mac the images animate fine in Firefox.

Any idea what can be causing this?

Got any JS popup windows or such? Those can kill animated GIFs I think.

Sheesh I feel stupid now. The same day I installed vBadvanced I also installed ZoneAlarm Pro. My brain is too busy these days to connect A, B *and* C.

Sorry for even *implying* that vBadvanced had anything to do with this. *slapping myself*.

Now, as to why ZoneAlarm wants to stop animated gifs is beyond me. :) But that is another discussion.

Hackers can insert code into images that can attack / infect your computer, Not to mention all of the Animated banners and what not.

Zone Alarm added a feature in the Pro version only if I am not mistaken, to disable all animations. This settings can be changed.

To stop the blocking of animations, go to

Privacy \ Ad Blocking \ Custom \ Then uncheck Animation
