What the fuck is up with IE?
 

It's trying to save pictures at bmps instead of jpgs or whatever, and it won't give me any other option. I don't use it that often, but WHAT THE FUCK is going on? Anyone familiar with this?

heuh? You mean it won't let you save them in JPG?

Delete your Temporary Internet Files and refresh the page.

and reboot, if resources get low, ie tends to do that

How do I do that? I DO NOT use IE. I use Mozilla most of the time and avoid IE like the plague.

reboot

Just booted up the system is ok.. this has been doing this for a day or so and it's pissing me off

Tools -> Internet Options

General Tab -> Temporary Internet Files -> Delete Files

Check Delete All Offline Content -> OK

May take awhile.

yeah, you need to clear your cache

Thank you muchly! I'll let you know how it goes.

Tools > Internet Options

Click Delete Files and check Delete all offline content

Then hit OK

good stuff :thumbsup

are those instructions for IE?


cuz she said she uses mozilla, although the thread title...


nevermind

Well that's certainly clearing up a lot of space lol

Naw I use IE when I have to save things because it saves the files as a .jpg instead of a .JPEG like Mozilla :)

If you click on Settings, you can set how much max. space you allow the comp to use for temp internet files.

im pretty sure you can get around that hon

If you want to save a file as a different format use quotes around the name and specify the proper extension..

eg. "filename.jpg"

That makes it save as a jpg and not the default, if def is bmp.

Thanks folks it's all better now :)

I had the same issue and eventually just gave up using IE after numerous hissy fits. Another wierd one was not being able to View---->Page Source.

Opera is ok, but I find Mozilla faster.

How much space? :)

You probably have the IE Pic 2004 Virus. Its activating today.
