When I watch "User Friendly" comics, some of them are animations which for several seconds display a plea for support. Some of them are pretty funny and I'd like to read them all, but before I have the chance they go to the second frame - the actual comic and I can't make them go back. Neither refreshing the page work, nor, "Show Image" does. Only "Save Image as..." and than watching it with some other program than Mozilla solves this problem, but it's very inconvenient. I'm not sure what would have happened if I re-started entire browser or cleaned the cache.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Seek "User Friendly" comic you have not watched yet, which contains this "nag strip" for you to support UF (hard to find one right now because of the bug).
2. Wait, until you see the actual comic.
3. Try refreshing page, and whatever you want to see the gif animation from the beggining
Actual Results:  
Can't see gif animation from the beginning.

Expected Results:  
Start the animation over.

Using default theme, there was no crash or whatever.
