Hi,
If deleting the TIF folder was the fix that worked, I'd explain it as...
Sometimes electrons misbehave .<G> The IE cache is a busy and complex system
of files and folders with data being added constantly and older data being
pushed out. Corruption is likely to happen at some point. It only takes a
damaged file or two. A full or corrupted TIF folder can cause several
problems, such as images not saving in the proper format, view source not
working, files won't download properly.
A common recommendation is to limit the TIF folder to about 50-60 MB and
clear it occasionally.
Hope this helps,
Don
Definitely not an expert on the IE cache ;-)
