Problem:

The website uses all GIF and JPG format images; but in IE when the same image file saved, saves the image file in .BMP format.


IE File Save As saves for all image files in .BMP format



Solution:

There are three reasons for the problem.

o There may be damaged ActiveX or Java Objects in the Download programs section of Internet Explorer. To resolve, remove damaged objects from Temporary Internet Files and Folders.

o The browser cache may be full and will need to be emptied. To resolve, clear all temporary files from the Temporary Internet Files and Folders; and free-up the cache.

o IIS has immediate Content Expiry applied on the website, which expires immediately the HTTP header values of the page containing the information about the image file and its format. Remove Content Expiry from the website and apply it only on the folder which require page expiry immediate.
