art images

[N Heal]

Since upgrading to IE6, any image with an .art file
extension does not display, able to view on web page, but
if I save, all I get is a small square with a red x in the
middle. Can ANYONE help with this annoying problem please?
many thanks, Nigel

If you did a 'custom' install of IE6, then you may not have installed ART
support. Run and IE repair and make sure that ART support is installed.

Make this reg file:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.art]
@="artfile"
"Content Type"="image/x-jg"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.art\PersistentHandler]
@="{098f2470-bae0-11cd-b579-08002b30bfeb}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.art\ShellEx]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.art\ShellEx\{BB2E617C-0920-11d1-9A0B-00C04FC2D6C1}]
@="{7376D660-C583-11d0-A3A5-00C04FD706EC}"

I call it artfix.reg I am always having to reset this. Microsoft just does NOT like art files. What can I say. Oh when you lose preview double-click this reg file. You'll get preview back for art files.
