When I try to save a picture off of the internet by right clicking and using "save picture as" it will only allow me to save in bitmap format. The pulldown box for file type only includes .bmp. Normally this is okay, because I can change it in a photo program, but when trying to save an animated gif, I am only able to get the still because of this. Any help on correcting this will be much appreciated. Thanks.
 
It's time to perform some house cleaning chores:

Go to Start > Run and type: CLEANMGR.EXE , and hit enter.
This will start your disk cleanup utility. Make sure to cleanup
your Temporary Internet Files.
