Default gifs won't save

I had such problems with the OS (XP Home SP3) that I did a complete
reinstallation to solve the numerous issues. Everything is up and running
fine again except that I can no longer save gif images as gif, they always
save as Animation Shop Animation, both from within the programmes installed
on the PC and also from the web. I have the option to save them in the drop
down box as gif but when I do this they still save in the other format. Any
ideas guys?
Cheers!

Default gifs won't save

You need to re-associate the *.gif with IE. It is now associated with Animation Shop
Animation as you posted.

To do this go to Control Panel\Folder Options\File Types and scroll down to *.gif
and set the association back to default which is IE
