Can only save Pics as an Untitled BITMAP? (1 Viewer)

[Ushabye]

This is a recurring problem for me for which I got a soloution here some time ago, but for some reason the fix wont work now:

Whenever I try to save a picture to my hard drive from the net the only options I'm offered is to save it as an untitled BITMAP. Emptying my temp internet files usually fixed this, I was then back to being able to save it as a JPG with the titled included. Now this fix wont work for some reason. Is there another cause why this keeps coming back?

Since I'm not allowed to post URLs yet go to

support dot microsoft dot com

and in the "Search the knowledge Base" field on the left type 260650.

what type of images are you trying to save? you can always just open them in mspaint and convert them in about 2 secs
