In case anyone is wondering, you can also use throbbers with Internet
Explorer.  It's been so long since I've used Netscape, but for IE the
images must be in a long vertical strip.  IE takes the width of the
strip and uses that for the height of each frame, thus you much use
square images (the first frame is the one that shows when IE is idle).
The BrandBitmap is the larger image used when you're using text and
images on the toolbar, while the SmBrandBitmap is for the smaller image
when no text is used.  You can use a REG file to automatically update
IE:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar]
"BrandBitmap"="c:\\PATH TO THE .BMP"
"SmBrandBitmap"="c:\\PATH TO THE .BMP"

You can also create a second REG file to restore the original IE logo:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar]
"BrandBitmap"="Default"
"SmBrandBitmap"="Default"
