    Are you on dial-up??? Firefox might be loading the whole GIF animation (or a large part of it) before playing any of it. Once it is in the cache, it would then play faster. Those not on dial-up will not notice this much at all as the loading into cache is faster.

    holy crap, i just tried to play far cry and he walks about 400 miles per hour, i can only assume that the 2 problems are somehow connected.

    UPDATE* after reinstalling xp it did it again. same problems, after updates and installing .net framework 1.0 it works fine thus far. if i had to guess the video drivers use the .net framework like the ati control pannel does. why isnt .net framework in SP2 .. geez
