hi folks.
got an annoying prob here, and im totally stumped.
im running dual monitors, and have recently reformatted. everythings ok and as it
was before,except when it comes to dragging pics from IE to my desktop. they used
to with no problems. now all i am able to do is save the pics as bmp's. when i drag
i get a "no-can do"sign. (the circle with slash through it)
ive enabled drag and drop etc, and nothing gives.
any suggestions would be EXTREMELY appreciated.
thanks!
manic miner.

Second symptom comes from too many files in your temp inet folder. Maybe the first
is also caused by it. Clean out your IE cache.
