Downloads in BMP or art format instead of preferable jpeg or jpg

[ony]

Picture downloads are prompting to be saved in art format and bmp.
I need them to be in jpg as I used to have. This started yesterday. What
changes should I make to correct it

It's time to perform some routine computer maintenance:

Go to Start > Run and type: CLEANMGR.EXE , and hit enter.
This will start your disk cleanup utility. Make sure to cleanup
your Temporary Internet Files.

If you are getting an option for .art files, I'm going to assume you have
AOL. Is that correct?

Why can't I save .jpg, .gif or .png images in their original format in
Microsoft Internet Explorer?
