If all he wants to do is replace any animated gifs with transparent gifs then this filter will accomplish that but it would require less work to simply turn off animations in Prox or in the browser.
Name = "Ani Gif Killer"
Active = TRUE
Multi = TRUE
Bounds = "<imgs*>"
Limit = 256
Match = " src="*$LST(NoAnims).gif"s1"
Replace = " src="http://Local.ptron/transparent.gif" 1"
After you input this filter you'll need to create a list and name it "NoAnims" when you configure Prox to use it. It doesn't matter what the name of the actual text file is.
In this list you will need to input the names of the offending gifs without their extensions. In other words if the name of a gif you wish to replace is "home.gif" then input "home" into the list (no quotes). This filter doesn't know if a gif is animated which is the reason for the list.
Since most images used on the web are gifs then use of this filter will probably slow you down since it will have to check every gif on the page and there may be dozens of them.
You'll need a transparent gif too.
