That's a rather large animated gif image, so if you're on dial-up you might prefer some alternatives.

You can also find SOHO images on the ESA site here:

Follow the "The Sun Now" link inthe top left corner, or go to:

http://sohowww.estec.esa.nl/data/realtime-images.html

There you'll find images in a variety of formats, including the animated gif.
