Saving web images - always goes to .bmp files

[Mike Clifford]

Whenever I right mouse click to save a web image the 'Save' box that opens
only has the ability to save the file as a .bmp. Even the drop down box only
has .bmp option

I would much prefer to save as a .jpg file to save space.

Is there any configuration changes I need to do to get this as an option ???

In File associations I have altered .bmp files to open in Paint Shop Pro,
also jpg files

Any help appreciated

Clearing the Temporary Internet Files almost always fixes this.

I cannot believe it is that simple - but it works

Many thanks for your time & trouble
