This update applies to Internet Explorer.........not Netscape. It has proven itself to be problematic.

Thank you Vincenzo for your response. I did a little further thinking and digging into the problem today. It has something to do with the way .gif images are created in QuarkXPress 6.5 that Microsoft no longer likes. They stopped displaying in Windows Explorer some time ago. And now Internet Explorer 6 SP2 with KB905915 and KB910437 updates installed will no longer display them. They continue to display correctly in Netscape Navigator, Firefox and Opera. So KB905915, and maybe 910437, changed something in IE regarding .gif images. I took each image and re-saved it in Photoshop Elements to generate the gifs correctly and they now display in IE with KB905915, and in Windows Explorer. So I guess I have to get with the folks at Quark.
I did make the registry change you suggested. -- Jerry

Thanks Marcus for your response. I did further research on the problem. It seems that gif images created in QuarkXPress 6.5 are no longer displayed in Internet Explorer 6 with KB905915, and maybe KB910437, installed. They stopped displaying in Windows Explorer some moons ago.
The only solution I've found is to re-save each gif image in Photoshop Elements to get the files acceptable to Microsoft. Thats rather tedious. -- Jerry

Hi Frank. I do not have IE7 installed. I am beginning to think it is a problem with QuarkXPress's creation of gifs, and/or a change in the way they are displayed in IE and, previously, Windows Explorer. Thanks for your reply. -- Jerry

Hi Rick. I filled out an online request on Saturday for for the free support that Quark gives and am waiting for an acknowledgement that they received it. They are supposed to "acknowlege receipt" within 24 hours. I'll post anything I hear, but I think it will take days for an answer. Telephoning may be a faster option. I tied Quark telephone support back with version 6.0 when I explained to them that when you export a file to html, it generates a non-existent "HTMLExportHackHackHack.htm" file listing in your My Recent Documents (Windows START menu). Well, version 6.5 still creates it. I held off on Microsoft because of the $35 email technical support fee, so I thought I'd try the forums first. -- Jerry

Thanks for the info. Since the problem is just affecting my own personal website. I'll wait to see if Microsoft and/or Quark, steps up to resolve the issue. Good luck to us both. :)

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. -- Jerry

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.

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. -- Jerry

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. -- Jerry
