re: IE saves as BMP instead of JPG??? Thursday, November 29, 2001 at 11:49 am Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Jeff (1 messages posted) I am having a similar problem with computers here for none adminstrator accounts. All but two of them do this. They have all been setup the same and I am trying to find out why those two work. A temporary solution I have found is to ignore the save as type box. Even though it says bmp just add the .jpg or .gif extension to the end of the file name and it save the file in that format. If you wish to use the picture in a web page I found that unless you open the file and do a save as the picture will not be viewable.
