Change Defaults for Saving Pictures

[Key Bored]

Hi All,

When I right-click on an IE image and "Save Picture As..., the default
folder always comes up as "My Pictures", and the image is saved as a
thumbnail. I want to change the default location to another folder of my
choice and I always want to save it in the "details" view instead of
thumbnails. How to do this???

Thanx,
Key Bored

When I go to http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm and I find the Set
Detail View for all Folders Open/Save As (Line 85, Left) it takes me to the
following link http://www.cottonwoodsw.com/fx3summ.html for a file called
File-Ex. Am I missing something here! I don't want to have to pay for
something for which I already paid a bundle to get XP in the first place. I
want to disable the thumbnails view everytime I save a picture from the
internet. Why doesn't microsoft get that!
