firefox

I have an animated GIF that loops three times. I have noticed in Firefox and Chrome (haven't checked others) that I can view the GIF once and then if I reload the page, the cached GIF is not animated at all.

Is there a solution to this? Is there something about the animated GIF that I could change to prevent this from occurring?
