Using WinXP, IE 6, when I right click on the cockroach gif on the bottom of this page BMP Problem and do a Save Picture As, my system sees it as 'Untitled.bmp'. But it's actually a gif file named 88logo. This problem only exists on animated gif files.

What setting do I need to change to fix this? Or what?

For the 2nd time this week...

Do a forum search for untitled.bmp. Hint: search archived threads ;)

Clean out your Temporary Internet files - that will usually solve the problem.

Thanks a lot corky-g. That did it. I appreciate your kind response.

Mitzi, take a pill, a nap, or something.

Is it really that difficult to spend 30 seconds searching before posting though?

It doesn't need to be. I tried doing the search and at least 4 threads came up...each one answering the question.

If everyone searched then some people would be out of a job, for sure :)
