You can display animated gifs using the webbrowser control found under Microsoft Internet Controls.
Here's some code - placed a webbrowser control & command button on a form.

This example also allows you to specify a background color.
Code:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim sHTML As String
Dim sBGColor As String
Dim sAniGif As String
sBGColor = "blue" 'change this string
sAniGif = "c:\anigif.gif" 'change this string
sHTML = "about:<html><body bgcolor =" & _
Quote(sBGColor) & "><img src =" & _
Quote(sAniGif) & "></html>"
WebBrowser1.Navigate2 sHTML
End Sub
'Here's the Quote function for completeness sake
Public Function Quote(sString As String) As String
Quote = Chr(34) & sString & Chr(34)
End FunctionSeasons Greetings

Actually, There is a way to do it WITHOUT using the web browser control..
Here is the location of one code example:
There are plenty of others also at PlanetSourceCode.com if you want to take a look.

Hi
You said WITHOUT the Webbrowser control but the file you've linked to uses the webbrowser control?
Since you've posted that it can be done in Visual Basic WITHOUT the Webbrowser control, I would've thought that you'd post or link to an example that does this WITHOUT the webbrowser control.
