Pictures Save As BMP Untitled

Hey,
Whenever I try to save a picture onto my hard drive the picture always wants to save as a Bitmap file with the name "untitled" It used to save normally but I got WinGet and I think that is the problem.
Is there a way to stop this and get them saving as their normal filetype?

Kreegher__, Glad to see that the problem is corrected and Thanks for posting back to let us know. For some odd reason this problem is common with Windows XP.

Its just one of those [many] un-explainable things in Xp...nothing to do with spyware.
