1 Solution to: IE saves as BMP instead of JPG??? Sunday, February 27, 2005 at 9:15 am Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Herve (2 messages posted) I got a solution which actually works ! whereas cleaning the cache or deleting the "downloaded programs" as recommended by MS did not work. Simply move the temporary internet files folder (tools>options>temporaty Internet files>parameters). I do not know how it works but it actually does ! I hope that will be true for you too.
