MSIE "Save As Bitmap" option only

This seems to be a reoccuring issue, so I think it doesn’t hurt to show the solution once again:

Sometimes it happens that MSIE refuses to save images under the original name and filetype. It will always suggest ” unknown.bmp ” as the filename.

To solve this problem:

  1. go to Tools/Interent Options/ Advanced
  2. Find the section called Security
  3. Find the item calledDo Not save encrypted pages to disk
  4. Make sure it is checked
  5. Hit the Apply button

there you go ;o)
