Boom IE6 Picture Saving/Reuse

I've recently upgraded to IE6 (greatly dissapointed), and I've found one thing that is SERIOUSLY getting on my nerves. When I was still using IE5, when you visited a web page, it would of course save the pictures that you viewed temporarily and use them again as you returned to that page, so that the pictures would load quickly. In IE6 though, I find that every single time I revisit a webpage, the pictures are redownloaded. It is not nearly as fast as IE5. Is there any way that I can get IE6 to store the pictures, and actually use them again as apposed to downloading them over, and over, and over, and over .............

How big is the cache? Check under Tools...Internet Options...General tab...Temporary Internet Files...Settings.

In IE, go to Tools>Internet Options>Genera tab>Settings button and try the different settings under "Check for newer versions of stored pages." Using the "Never" button will, I believe, force IE to use the cached page but on time-sensitive sites which change constantly, you will probably need to remember to refresh the page manually to get the up-to-date version.
