    When I'm clicking a link to a JPG, or sometimes it's an article link, but ends in .jpg I *must* save it, then open it. I'm thinking this has something to do with my settings, but how the heck do I find it? What do I change?

    I'm running Firefox.

    This has not ALWAYS been the case, but I did not purposefully change this...I think it happened when I updated something...what, I have no idea!

    Ok, try this.
    Open your Firefox browser. Click on the "Tools" tab on the top of the browser. Go down to options, click on the "content" tab on the top. Make sure the "load images automatically" box is checked. Then click "OK"
    Hope this works. If not.... I have no idea! :lol:

    Does a box pop up when you click the download link that asks if you want to save it or open it? if so try clicking open with and select firefox. That's what I do to get 'm to open.
