    Why does IE keep saving .jpg as .bmp?

    Since yesterday, my Internet Explorer keeps saving JPEG pictures as bitmap pictures. I have no idea why it started doing this.

    Anyone else know why this happens and how to change it back?

              reload the page, that usually helps.

                                          I had the same exact problem... had to use Netscape to save images... but then the glitch just kinda went away after I dicked around with settings...

                                                  Yeah, I fixed it by deleting all the files in my cache. Then re-starting IE.

If you run a Win2K / Active directory, it dosent "broadcast" anything.. everything is controlled by the directory.... its like the matrix..it owns your ass. Even better.. upgrade to IP v- 6

                                                                                                                                                              We moved them into our Win2k active network on a Compaq cluster server, the difference was amazing all the issues went away.

                                                                                                                                                              The final straw was the end users blamed the network for not being able to do their work on time, once on the win2k that excuse was gone. Then they wanted new G4 at 3k a pop they all got 1k Dell's.

                                                                                                                                                              There production has never been better, they went form a 100 + Mac's to 2 left that are for type setting.

                                                                                                                                                              Bottom line is Mac's suck on a network, we tried everything to get them to work, what a waste of time.

If not, try that, and see if it is ok. Also, you'd have to refresh the page in order to save an image after clearing out the old files.
