Yeah...you want explorer to show you the file extensions. I don't know why .jpg files would be saved as .jpe or any quick way to fix it but if you show extensions you should be able to specify the actual extension you desire, in this case .jpg instead of .jpe. When you have extensions hidden you're at Windows' possibly goofed up mercy. You can name a file whatever extension you want but if you have the extensions hidden you won't be able to tell for sure what extensions might be erroneously appended by some weird file association...the most reliable method is to take matters into your own hands when naming your files and force the correct extension. If I happen to come across a registry key to tweak for IE's "Files of type" dialogue I'll post it here. Good luck!

What Web Browser do you use, if I might ask. I have a suspicion that you might have a variation of Netscape there. That product has a horrendous history of hijacked associations and stuffed up images.
.jpe is simply a variant of .jpg, by the way, and renaming the files to have a .jpg extension should get them working correctly. But sorting out those file associations is a must. When you install any program, ALWAYS choose 'Custom install' and don't allow it to take over every file association it wants to get its grubby little hands on!

No need for obscenity, and in fact it's unnacceptable to use it on this board!
Uninstall PaintShop Pro. Uninstall Firefox. Reboot.
Reinstall Firefox and let it associate with image types. Reinstall PSP and DON'T let it associate with any image types. See what happens then.

This may be a trick by a webmaster to keep you from saving images.
Try changing the extension to .gif and then opening the file type dropdown.
Another trick if you can't get to the Save Image As entry is to:
- ctrl-print-xcreen the image.
- open Paint
- paste the clipboard
- cut out the image you want
- open anither copy of Paint
- paste it into the blank Paint page
- save it as you please
