Save As only bmp!

[[Sinan]]

For a while, my computer allows me to Save pictures As .bmp type only! I
cannot see and select other types like gif, jpg etc. at Save As box. Does
anyone have an idea? I would appreciate any input.

Thanks!

Your Internet Explorer Temporary Files Cache is full and
needs to be emptied.

Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup
and perform some housekeeping.

Internet Explorer Does Not Save Graphics Files in the Proper Format

This happens if the indexes of the Temporary Internet Files get
overloaded. In Control Panel - Internet Options, in the temporary
internet files section on the General page, click 'Delete files'. Then
I suggest click Settings and reduce the space allowed - 50 MB is
probably generous, and on big drives it tends to choose by default a
setting that is so high that this overload happens
