Hi. I am using Windows XP Professional. It seems that I
can't save any images from the web to my computer after
right clicking my mouse. It doesn't matter if it's a
JPEG.GIF BMP etc. The mouse seems to function normally when
right clicking
things like copy+paste etc. Any suggestions?

When you right click on the web picture a menu opens.
Do you have the option "Save picture as" on this menu?
It should be there.
If not listed, do the following. Go to a folder with some jpg files. Place
your mouse above the filename or the thumbnail. A textbox will open. The
first item listed should be Dimensions in pixels. If Dimensions is not
listed try the following repair.
Click on Start, click on Run and type the following in the opening textbox:
REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL
and press the Enter key.
Note that there is a space between ....32 and SHI....
After you do this, check if Dimensions is listed and try right click on a
web image and see if you now get "Save picture as" listed on the menu.
