Sorry to interrupt the Iphone bitch-fest, but I'm having a strange problem. Whenever I try to save pictures onto my comp, they aren't saving. I right click, hit "save image as," and it ain't showing up on my comp.
What the hell is the deal? --------------------   |

It pops up, I try to save it, and it doesn't save - anywhere - desktop, random folders, everywhere I try to save it doesn't fucking save. It's driving me nuts cause when I actually want a picture, i have to do a Print Screen, crop, etc. Enraging -------------------- |

i had a similar problem a while back, it was automatically saving files to a temporary folder, don't remember how i fixed it, but that might help someone else figure it out

When I go to clear the temporary internet files, Firefox freezes. I know they're located somewhere and can be manually deleted (via My Computer or My Documents). I just don't know where. Any help? -------------------- |

wouldn't he have trouble browsing the internet too if his temp folder was that full? It sounds like some type of virus to me.
anywho, I think you can clear the temp folder by going to start>control panel>internet options but dont quote me on that. also, i would do a clean re-install of the new version of firefox if I were you. I know you run an older version because you dont like the new one, but there are reasons they come out with newer versions. see if that fixes the problem. |

nah you can still browse the internet if it's full, you just can't save anything. when you right-click save as, it's basically taking it from your temp internet files folder.
will you can go to the folder directly by going to: C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files it's a hidden folder so you'll have to type it in. just replace USER with the username you're logged in as. just do a CTRL-A and delete everything in the folder. close down any browsers first. |
