thanks for all the responses guys n gals!
I use Google Chrome, and it never happened before until i reinstalled it. once i did that, i set my default image viewer to open images in PDN. That works as expected, however, say i right click an image online, and save as......it has this huge wait time to download, then it opens up PDN every time. i just want it to save to my pc, not open PDN every time. i can't tell if its browser setting or in PDN, cant seem to find a thing!
