saving jpgs

[Debbie]

When I try to save a jpg or a gif it will only allow me to save it as a bmp.
I had this trouble once but don't remember what the solution was. Can
someone help me out? Thanks.

Usually clearing your Temp. Internet Files usually clears this problem - in
IE go to Tools...Internet Options...General tab, Delete Files.

See this article for more information:

Or, this could be the issue:
