I have recently lost the option to save images from the
web as .gif files. The only option available, in fact, is
the .bmp option which of course does not include the
animation feature of the .gif file, just the picture. Can
anyone help???
 
Hi Michelle,

This problem occurs if the Temporary Internet Files are full. Clear the
temporary internet files.

1. Start Internet Explorer
2. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
3. Click the General tab.
4. Under Temporary Internet files, click Delete Files.
5. When you are prompted to delete all temporary Internet files, click OK.
