The best way I would figue is convert it to AVI with and MPG to AVI converter
and then use Gif Construction set to convert the AVI to individual GIFs.

Gif contruction set can be found at http://www.download.com  just do a search
for GIF.
As for the MPG to AVI I'm not too sure where you can get that :(
I'm sure there is one available tho.
