Whenever I save a picture to my hard drive, and then try and open it later, it never works. It opens in Windows Picture and Fax Viewer, but all it says is "No Preview Available." The only way I can view pictures is by saving it as my background, and then looking for the Internet Explorer Wallpaper in my C drive. Even then, when I open it, it only opens in the Paint program. I have a new Dell Optiplex w/ Winfows XP and Internet Explorer 6. Thanks for any help.
 
What file extention are you using to save your files..? Get a good picutre
editor or use another program to open your pictures.

Download and install irfanview from irfanview.com. It will open just about
any graphic and is a great, free viewer.

Open it with Internet-Explorer, then resave it with whatever option may be
available (*.bmp at least).
