Weird "problem" with IE 5

I'm using IE5 (and NN6), I've noticed recently that when I try to click and drag a picture from any webpage to say my desktop, it won't let me do it. And when I right click and save picture as, any picture format becomes the BMP format. WTH is going on?

Hey Ming,

Try to reinstall IE5 or just upgrade to IE6 (hopefully you have at least cable modem)

I believe that if you just reinstall it will maintain your previous attributes. If that is the case you will have achieved nothing.

Mingster needs to reset his attributes to default.
