I had that happen once with an instant messenger. Go to your internet options and make sure that they didn't change. Mane sure that imaging is enabled... stuff like that

i did get rid of mozilla and had no change, so went ahead and put it back on. I'll check my internet options but the internet will still allow me to do that, it's when i look at a file on my computer and not in a browser that i have no option.

when I start running into strange problems, I take some time to scan disc, clean disc, defrag, and reboot. Helps a big percent of the time.

strong bad is a character at www.homestarrunner.com (check out the emails) but it was just amazing to me that my "wallpaper" was a bunch of repeating animated gifs, system didn't like that very well lol
