| 134479 | 2003-04-09 04:10:00 | I'm running IE 6.x SP1 and XPP SP1. For some reason, when I try to save an image from an IE browser, it defaults to the My Pictures folder, file name "untitled" and image type bitmap with no other options in the file type box. This is happening regardless of whether it is a jpeg or gif that I'm trying to save. I haven't installed anything strange lately and this has been happening since mid last week. I know I can just save it as a bmp and re-open/save as in photoshop to change the file type, but thats a hassle, and it's also a strange thing to start happening! I've tried on a heap of different images and it happens to all of them. Google wasn't much help, looks like others have had the same problem but didn't manage to sort it out. |

| 134480 | 2003-04-09 04:48:00 | JPG's - Only Saves as a Bitmap The option to save as jpeg is not available: Clear your Temporary Internet Files, then try again. Go to IE/Internet Options/Delete Files. Also in Settings change the amount to 40 MB. This will help in preventing the index files from becoming overloaded. If that doesn't help check your settings here: Start/Run/Regedit HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpg. For Content Type, it should read "image/jpeg". HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpeg. For content Type, it should read: image/jpeg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.gif. For Content Type is should read "image/gif" If it already set to that, go to Start, Run and type in: regsvr32 /i shdocvw.dll, regsvr32 /i shdoc401.dll,regsvr32 webvw.dll and regsvr32 thumbvw.dll (for upgrades).
