IE picture and source problem

[Henrik]

When trying to save an image from a website, IE only
allows me to save it as a bmp file. Normally, you get the
right to choose either jpg/gif or bmp. What is wrong?

Second problem:
IE does not allow me to view the page's source. What is
wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Henrik,

Both these problems occurs if the Temporary Internet Files are full. Clear
the temporary internet files.

1. Start Internet Explorer
2. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
3. Click the General tab.
4. Under Temporary Internet files, click Delete Files.
5. When you are prompted to delete all temporary Internet files, click OK.
