=====================================
Deleting your temp and temporary internet files
solves this problen when trying to save an image
from the web but I don't know if it applies to your issue.

Here's an article on it:

>If you have a photo program such as Photoshop, can open

the .bmp pic, then from the "file" menu, do a "save as"
or "save a copy". These usually give you the options of
saving as a JPEG or other file extension. When I add text
to a JPEG file, it automatically saves it as a .bmp file,
then I have to do a "save as" to get it back to JPEG.
Good Luck!
