Paint Cannot Save This File

I am having a problem with MS Paint in Vista.
It seems that when you paste multiple times into different Paint
instances, save the first, then save the second, the second save often
fails, with the error:

Paint cannot save this file. Save was interrupted, so your file has
not been saved.

I've found a blog entry that has the same number of steps, but no
solution is apparent yet:

Anyone know of a solution?

Click Edit, Select All > click Edit again > Copy > close Paint > start Paint
again, then Paste and save your file.
