If it's prompting to save everything as untitled.bmp try clearing your temporary internet files.

nah, it isnt quite as simple as that , if i recall its somethink to do with corrupt files hidden away, and you remove or fix it and the problem goes away , i just cant recall how ive done it before.

This is the method I've always used since the bug was first introduced in IE5.
Rumour has it MS have at last sorted this issue out and IE7 doesn't suffer from it - I'm going to miss the bug to be honest.
As soon as I could only save files .bmp format I knew it was about time to clear out those temporary files.
