When I try and save any picture it tries to save as untitled.bmp instead of a
jpeg. How do I get to save jpeg?
Any help would be good.
Thanks

Try the following and see if it helps:
First.. IE-Tools-Internet Options-Delete Files (in the TIF section)
Clear recycle bin to finish getting rid of the files.
also...
Start > Run > type Regedit in the window
First, back up your Registry
Then navigate to
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\ContentType\Image\jpeg
In the right pane you will see the 'Extension' value is likely to be
<whatever the incorrect extension is>. If the extension listed is not the
incorrect extension then this isn't the solution. If it is the same
incorrect extension, double click on the word 'Extension' and change it to
the correct file format (i.e., .jpg, bmp, gif, etc.)
Save, close the Registry Editor and check to see if this has resolved the
problem.
Another possibility is that you have checked Do not save encrypted pages to
disk on the Advanced tab of Tools | Options, and the picture is on a page
reached by a secure https:// connection.
Hope this helps.

Hi JanIl
I had a look around the support gorups and was diverted to a windowsxp MVP
site which said to type Regsvr32 /i mshtml.dll in the ruun box. Now
Internet
explorer does nothing except show a white screen, nothing loads, outlook
express does not work. and other problems. Any ideas what has happened
now?

it was explained to me by a VERY HIGH LEVEL Server Admin was this:
It is simply a matter that IE cannot make a direct connection to the
attributes of the file you are trying to save, but it knows it is an image.
Therefore it saves it in it's own native-compliant format, which would be as
a Windows Bitmap. It is also sometimes a direct result of some security
measures put into place at the server level, that disallows said connection
to certain file attributes making the browser unable to see the true file,
but rather what the browser sees is a sort of "compiled image" - the
interpreted display.
This behavior does not imply that there is anything wrong with your system.
Bitmaps, although they can be large, are generally safe (in some cases safer
than jpg's). If you have an image software comparable to Photoshop or
Fireworks, you can simply convert the file after saving it and then delete
the BMP version. But, I'm sure it's not about that, it's about the
convenience...

Note: Original thread (Mar 23, 2006) at http://snipurl.com/r54u
Actually, clearing out the Temporary Internet Files is nearly always the fix
for this JPG><BMP problem. But, it's true that the cache isn't necessarily
"full" in terms of bits, bytes or megabytes, but that the indexing system
has broken down.
There's an excellent explanation at

and more at

This usually means your cache is full. Delete all Temporary files (Tools ->
Internet Options -> Delete Files) then try again.
