This happens to me every now and then, but not often enough to worry about. It only seems to happen when I've been saving heaps of files, and is resolved by closing all IE windows in that process and restarting it
OP
tried that, no luck. restarted numerous times, tinkered with settings, still didnt fix it
oddly enough...i had a problem like that too, but it was just with SP1. for a while, it would randomly choose the file type to save it as (with no option for the other), and eventually it shifted to JUST bmp files, which was a real pita. however, one day it just fixed itself, and i don't know why. anyone else ever have this problem before?
Yes, I have had this before too.
Nothing to worry about tho.

whoops ...inside joke from my irc channel
pita is an idler at our channel. pita also is a mnemonic (sp?) for "pain in the ***". use it sometime...maybe it'll gain acceptance and we can take the claim for inventing it

I have the same problem but I think it has to do with the way the website places the pics. If they are placed as a file then IE will save it as is. If they are placed as an HTML file or HTM file then IE saves it as a bmp. I know, it sucks, gotta convert all those Pregnant asian lesbian pics.
