An easy way is to rename the file to a jpg.
When your about to save the picture(s), name them .jpeg at the end. Example: MyPicture.jpg

If it still is a bitmap, you can do it like this: Move your picture(s) to your C drive.
Go to Start > Run > type: command (if you use Win9x) or type: cmd (if you use Win-NT).
When the black box comes up, type: CD / and press enter once.
Then type: rename MyPicture.bmp MyPicture.jpg and press enter once.

Hope this help.

If you can't save files a JPG's(only Bitmap), first try emptying your Temporary Internet Files
Tools / Internet Options / Delete Files button

If that doesn't work, try clicking in the Settings button / View Objects button
Remove any files that show as Damaged or Unknown

You'll find normally the first one works :)
