Image Saving Problem

J

Jason

Ok, before in IE6 when you right click on image, and save as, it usually
would allow to save as what ever the actual image format was. Now, no
matter what, when I click save picture as: the only option is a bmp, even if
its a jpg? Any thoughts or ideas on how to fix this? Thanks in advance!!

Here are two procedures that may fix this problem.

To empty your Temporary Internet Files cache
1. In Internet Explorer, click Tools, and then click Internet Options.
2. On the General tab, click Delete Files.

To turn off graphic compression in the AOL client
1. Go to Preferences in AOL.
2. Click Internet properties (or WWW in some versions).
3. Click Web Graphics.
4. Clear Never compress graphics (or Use compressed graphics in some versions).
