Q: When I try to save an image using Internet Explorer, IE saves
it as a Bitmap file. How do I save it as a JPEG file?
A: There seems to be a cache problem between Microsoft's Internet
Explorer (IE) browser and the IEEE servers that impacts the file-save-as
problem. Unless IE can save the file to cache, it forgets how it
got the file and only has access to the .bmp copy it is using to
show the display (a design decision). Empty your cache, refresh the page and try again.
