jpegs changing in IE

[Barbara]

I have many pages with background sets. I upload them as
jpegs or gifs, but when I go to save them off the web
page, they're saving as bitmaps. What can I do to stop
that? Others are compaining, they cant save my images
because of this.
Thanks in advance

The usual fix is to clear your cache.
IE-Tools-Internet Options-Delete Files (in the TIF section)

That seems to work about 98% of the time but if it doesn't, close IE
and reopen and do it again. Also it has been reported that clear
cookies helps, but ensure you save any that you need.
