mbr Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 Welcome to the wonderful world of Microsoft. It's an IE screw up, at least from what I've been told. I had the same thing happen, along with no right clicking to view source, then no view source at all (try to do that and see if you can). The only solution I could get was a reinstall of windows because IE is so tightly integrated with Windows, installing again rarely does anything. On the bright side, for me, it went away after a while and worked again. But I've had problems with IE on and off, and I've reinstalled W2K several times since then. My conclusion: IE stinks (but I keep using, for some reason). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Cassil Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 I've had the same problem with saving images from the internet but I thought it was some setting I had accidently switched. At least I know I'm not alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Homeless Guy Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 try clearing your temporary internet files/folder from the options menu. not sure if that will solve your problem, but that does sometimes cause it. the problem i am having lately... whenever i download a zip file, it is corrupt. any ideas?

mwhite Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 I posted the same question a while back on the SU forum and was told to clear out the temperory internet files and that did the trick. My temp directory had accumulated 28,000 files and I did not bother to find out how much disk space that took, but it probably was a pretty bid portion of the hard drive. As soon as I'm forced to save as a BMP (which is larger than the jpegs, go figure that one out) I know I have to delete all the cached crap that MSIE holds onto.

Jason Matthews Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 I am not a big fan of IE because of all of the spyware/popups that active x likes bring up. I prefer mozilla firefox. It works great, I don't get popups, my tempory internet files stay clear, and I have never had this problem. I think microsoft is going to piss us all off enough that we are going to switch to mac comps instead. Just my thoughts. -Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
