Default Can only save images as .bmp

Hi,
I've recently been having a problem where I can only save images (right click > save as) as .bmp
In the past I have been able to select the format (It would default as the format of the picture - eg, a smilie would save as .gif etc) and also the name would default to whatever it had been uploaded as...
Now it saves as untitled.bmp. I can change the file name but not the format so If i save an animation it doesn't work!
Sorry I haven't explained this all that well but I'm not very gd with computers and don't know all the lingo!
Thanks
Claire

Go to Tools | Internet Options | Delete Files

Your cache is full, almost certain of it.
