Interesting problem over the last several months. When I download a pic, on many occasions the file comes up as an untitled bitmap. I accidentally discovered that if I backpage, then click on the thumbnail again, I will get a labeled jpeg. This happens mostly in the Babe galleries, but occasionally on the forums also. Some days it happens ony a couple of times, however today on virtually every pic I try to download. Any ideas?

Hey Frodo,
Are you sure this doesnt happen with other sites? as my first suspicion is thats this is a known problem with Internet Explorer.
Have a read of this Microsoft article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/810978
Let us know what the outcome is.

I've had the same experience here, but I can't say with certainty that it would not happen at other sites, since I attempt to save pics here far more often than anywhere else.

Well, fellows it gets more interesting. Still have the problem. Ran the fix from microsoft twice. No effect. Went and made sure all my updates were current then tried the fix again. Spent some time checking and did not have the problem at 6 other sites I checked. Also no problem when I tried a few pics from the forums here. Seems to be only the babe galleries. I think the clue here may be the back page trick. Everyone I tried after all those other checks invariably gave me a labeled jpeg after backpaging and clicking the thumbnail again.

Microsoft has recommended using Firefox to solve this problem. Since they can't build a browser properly.
