Are any options checked in there, and what are the options set to, specifically are there any proxy server settings?

Update your JAVA JRE ? Update your Adobe Flashplayer ? Update your Adobe Shockwave ? Check the "add-ons" that you may have your browser running ? I don't think your dial-up connection is going to limit the functionality of animated gifs once they are downloaded to your machine, but it will probably take just a bit longer to download them than if using BroadBand.
