Having recovered from the misery of a dead laptop, we've now got a new one, but when I try to save census images from Ancestry a message pops up saying something like "For your computers security this file was saved to temporary interrnet files. do you want to view?" and I can't get the images to my memory stick. Any ideas on how to overcome this?

Are you using Vista ?

If you are right click : save as. save to (wherever you wish ) works for me.

When it asks you if you want to view image, can you then save it?

Hi Wendy & Sue, yes, its Vista, I'm still struggling with the different layout & feeling a bit panicky. I will keep trying. (At least I had everything backed up before the old computer died)

I think I may have cracked it, but I'm going to stop now as it's getting too late to concentrate. Thanks ladies.

Mmmm

Vista was a learning curve. However I did find it easier to get on with than I was told it would.

Mastered most things within about a week / ten days.

I find it strange now when I have to use XP.

Enjoy.
