you talking about the browser cache in IE Dave?



if so open IE, go to Tools | Internet Options... | General tab... .where it says Temporary Internet Files hit the Delete Files button



maybe talking about the DNS resolver cache? open a command prompt and type:



ipconfig /flushdns



something else maybe?

Well I know how to delete cookies.

This is my problem.

FOr some reason when I right click and try to save an image. It only allows me to save it as a bitmap. My XP has never been this way before. It used to allow me to save them as whatever format they happend to be, generaly as JPEGs

Sinful7 told me that my cache was full?

I had nvere heard of this so that is why I asked.



Its not my temp internet files. I clean that out once a week.

So any advice?

So in the file dialog box, you only get "bitmap" as an extension option?



I don't think that has anything to do with the cache, because bitmap files are much larger than JPEG files.

No I do not use AOL. This is IE.



I havent tries Opera or Avant to see if they do the same.
