Saving A File From a Newsgroup when Right Clicking

[Guest]

In Outlook Express, I often view photos from various newsgroups; when I
right-clickn the image, I am prompted to save the photo in My Documents\My
Photos.

I do NOT want the photo saved there, so that I must manually scroll through
the harddrive...in order to save it where I want it saved.

Ultimately, until I turn off the computer, my "saved" (and desired) location
works.

That is, until I reboot the computer. Then...the same procedure is required.

HOW CAN I CHANGE THE DEFAULT LOCATION SO THAT THE SCROLLING THROUGH THE
HARDDRIVE IS NEVER NECESSARY?

Thanks,

Larry

you could simply create a folder, keep it open and drag the picture to the desired folder.

It is not possible to drag the photo to a created folder on my desktop!

Scrolling through the hard drive? All you have to do is create a folder in your MyPictures folder and save there. I correct my self on dragging the pic, copy and paste or save to. The only reason i can see you wouldn't want to do something as simple as saving it to the pictures folder is if they are pics you don't want someone to see. In this case, you have to suffer through a whole four clicks of the mouse to save your picture.
