    Hi all,

    Not sure what is up here, as i can only download .jpg images only.. If i try to download bit map (.bmp), i get an error (along with a red X) stating "the system is not ready".. What could be the cause of this?

    sounds like the website you are trying to download the image from has disabled DOWNLOADING of that image... maybe all images from thier site??

    just a thought

    It's actually happening for all .bmp images on any site.. I wonder if it's a vista issue?? I wish i could make the error stay up longer, but as fast as it pops up it disappears!
