I can't do that with any image!  What browser is that?

I can right-click (in IE6) and choose rewind.  That stops it on that 
page.

Also, I found out you can go to 
www.macromedia.com/support/flash/ts/documents/playerfaq.htm#remove
and uninstall Flash Player.  I haven't done that, so I don't know if 
it works or what other effects it may have - presumably some moving 
images you *want* to see may be disabled.
