Are there any problems using an animated GIF for a web site’s favicon instead of an actual .ico file

When putting a favicon on your site, you can apparently use an animated gif, just by changing the gif file’s extension to .ico.

Have you encountered any problems doing this? Have you seen a browser get confused by a gif file with a .ico extension?
