make sure you save it as JPEG/JPG file extension, IE can't open native photoshop file formats

i can try opening in mozilla, and it'll say
The image “whatever.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

try saving again because it looks like the file may be corrupted
alternatively, you can upload the photoshop file provided its not something you don't wanna share on the internet

Instead of saving as JPG in the "File -> Save", use the "Save for Web and Device" function in the File menu.

You should have the option to save it as a JPEG when using that, click the box that says "GIF" or whatever, and select JPEG instead.

Make sure it's RGB.. Image>Color
It's a common mistake to have a file as CMYK (for printing) .. X in iE
