That file only contains one frame so it can't be animated. Are you sure you saved the animation rather than just a single frame?

You have to save all the images and then use Imageready or an Animated GIF maker to assemble it into an Animated GIF. You can't save the loop cause you it's a javascript loop, which only allows you to save a frame, not an animated GIF.

EDIT: Great loop.

I thought you just wanted the images on that page animated? The version I sent you is 5MB and far too big to use as a logo. Even reducing it to a reasonable size and qulaity it is still 200KB which is too big for a logo.

What program did you open it with? Open it with Firefox or something like that and it is animated.
