Hi, I'm having a bit of a problem. Whenever I click on a thumbnail, it used to just load onto the screen. Now it asks me if it should save to disk, or to load from location. I don't like this! Do you know how I can fix this? Thanks alot.

Hi: I will assume that you are using Internet Explorer Have you received an update recently? It sounds like you have received an update of IE that gives you the option of loading or saving the image, rather than just loading it, and that Microsoft assumes this is an enhancement rather than an annoyance.

If this is the case, you might be able to remove it as follows: Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel Double-click Add/Remove Programs On the Install/Uninstall tab, in the list of installed programs, click the component you want to remove, then click Add/Remove, then Yes to confirm.
