Picture and Fax Viewer Saving Pictures From Internet Browsing

[Guest]

Using Windows XP SP2. The windows picture and fax viewer is saving pictures,
banners, logos and whatever while I browse the web. They are not being saved
in the pictures file. The only time I can find all of this saved stuff is
when I receive e-mails with attached jpeg or tif files. When I open the
attached picture file, that image comes up and then when I arrow or scroll
left or right I see all of these other images. I can delete them, but the
next time I receive another e-mail with an attached picture, I find more new
things in the picture and fax viewer. Please help!

Hi,

That is where they are being saved. Change the path.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders

The viewer will show you every picture saved within the same folder. Say
you want to view a picture via the destop - using the viewer will then add
every picture saved on your desktop - not just the one you selected.
