Its just started doing this. Whereas before when I right-clicked & saved picture, it would pop up with e.g. empeg.jpg.

Now every one is untitled.bmp. Its getting annoying - I don't have any other option to save the format so they are all geting saved as huge files.

How do I get it back to how it was?

Here's the Avatars thread maybe you could put your non-existant avatar there? It's not on your web server anymore.

Wierd. I had this the other day as well. I fixed it by clearing the cache. I had several thousand files in there and it took up about 430MB. I really do dislike IE sometimes. Shame so many sites don't work with other browsers

I'll have to look up my IE usage at home, but I have come across very few sites these days with issues in non IE browsers. The benefits outweight the disadvantage of having to open IE from time to time.
