Module is missing the image from the package distribution (images/loading.gif). Its not in the tar file.

Second the basepath that is generated using "drupal_get_path" function is also incorrect as its always prefixed with the "web" path, not the physical directory path where the module resides. As a temporary fix I have replaced the function lookup, with a hardcoded path of 'sites/all/modules/ajax_register' in file ajax_register.module line 18.

Here are few (out of thousands) log entries that show that the module is looking for the image using absolute web-based paths, not physical filesystem paths.

Latest .module file still doesn't have changes. What is the actual path that needs to be put on line 18? I added what the original poster did, but this did not fix the problem of 404 Not Found.

$path = 'var tb_pathToImage ="'.'sites/all/modules/ajax_register/images/loading.gif";'; <--- This is what I have, not quite working.
$path = 'var tb_pathToImage ="'. drupal_get_path('module', 'ajax_register') .'/images/loading.gif";'; <--- Original Line, from the stable file download (redownloaded today to make sure.
It is still the same.

The problem also seems to occur on multilangual sites, which have a prefix by default.

For example, the URL it searches for is
http://MYSITE.com/fr/sites/all/modules/contrib/ajax_register/images/load...

but actually it must be without prefix:
http://MYSITE.com/sites/all/modules/contrib/ajax_register/images/loading...

So I think the line with tb_pathToImage must become:
$path = 'var tb_pathToImage ="/'. drupal_get_path('module', 'ajax_register') .'/images/loading.gif";';

(haven't tested it out to be honest)

This line

$path = 'var tb_pathToImage ="/'. drupal_get_path('module', 'ajax_register') .'/images/loading.gif";';

Is correct... fixed problem.

Also note... this bug in ajax_register was breaking encryption on my checkout page since it could not find the loading.gif image. "Parts of the page you are viewing were not encrypted..."

Сonfirm.
Bug is not fixed (I'm using 1.5).

Looks like a problem with a path.
/user/sites/all/modules/ajax_register/images/loading.gif

Still an issue. I'm in the weeds on a project, but you basically just need to add a base_path() before the rest of it...
so 

$path = 'var tb_pathToImage ="'. base_path() . drupal_get_path('module', 'ajax_register') .'/images/loading.gif";';

Will try to circle back and cut a patch when I'm not on deadline.

Thx
