Hehe, well IE6 here would not render the images, FireFox would, and both
would do my own local images so it was either the location of the images
bothering IE or else the images themselves. Saving an image from the site
locally proved it was the images.

Irfanview would load them and saving from there produced images IE6 would
render - conclusion it must be the images.

I did note that the images contained no summary info but after saving from
Irfanview they did, so there's obviously "Something" different. Perhaps if
this summary is not there IE considers it suspicious and ignores it?

By all means please do post back any info you find, it can only help
everybody including perhaps thousands of website designers.

Hi Charlie. Thanks for your input. I will post anything. I tried to join the
Quark Forum on Saturday, but Quark never sent me a confirmation email to
activate membership. However I didn't see anything posted yet about this
problem.

I seem to recall something about animated gifs having some possible
scripting type of vulnerability, but I can't remember if it was just
theoretical or real...

I figure there must be "Something" running to do the frame switching so
could it be that a gif with some of the "Limiting" info missing might
generate a buffer overrun somewhere and allow code to execute? Maybe MS
decided that missing info = risk so decided to block the whole thing and
others haven't got around to doing that yet, or else they don't see the
risk.

Good luck studying those two

That sounds quite like that could be the reason. There's something different
between gifs created with Quark versus those with Photoshop/Elements. You can
open the Quark gifs in Photoshop and re-save them and they will work in IE6
with these updates. Another solution is to save them in Quark as pngs, or if
you don't need transparency, as jpgs.

Thanks, Rick, for the thought.
You can solve the problem on your website by opening the gifs in
Photoshop/Elements (if you have) and re-saving and uploading them again. IE6
still likes Photoshop-created gifs. Or if possible depending on the images
you are using, you might be able to re-create the pages in Quark and use
pngs, or if you don't need transparency, jpgs . Either way, it is time
consuming and tedious.

Thanks Jerry,

I'll work on it later.

I hope that Microsoft resolves the issue for you soon.

Happy Holidays!
