Default Can't "Save Picture As..." IE 6.0

For some reason, my XP doesn't allow me to "Save Picture As..." when I
right-click in IE as anything but a BMP. I don't understand why I can't save
a .GIF as a .GIF, or a .JPG file as a .JPG! What is the problem here? XP
doesn't even give me the "Save/Print/etc" flyover icons on the graphics like
IE 6.0 gives my Win2k computers. How do you work around this???

Hi,

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.

I cleared the Temp files (set to 140MB) with no success. I checked the
registry per the faq notes and they are correct. I'm at a loss...

I just noticed that on some sites (www.microsoft.com) I DO have the option
to save GIFs as .GIFs, but on other sites (info.ct-dscp.com) I can only save
GIFs and JPGs as .BMP...

???

It's now looking like the problem is related to the site I'm trying to save
from (http://info.ct-dscp.com/). I can save properly on other sites, but not
this one. I did check all the steps in the referenced KB article below, and
nothing appears to be amiss...

I wonder what about a website/webpage would prevent you saving an image
(when the right-click button is not disabled with javascript)?

You need to clear out your Temporary Internet Files, close IE and Restart
IE.
