Save As in IE allows Bitmap only

[Glenn]

When I right-click on a picture on any web site and click on "Save As", it
only allows me to save the picture as a bitmap. Same web sites on other PCs
allow the picture to be saved as JPEG. It used to work on my PC up until a
few weeks ago. Any suggestions?

Clear your temp internet files and try again. Should work fine after that.

Basically, you need to clean up your temporary Internet files.

Thanks. I'll try that when I get back home.
