I got round it by adding "spaceball.gif" to the list in "adblock plus", the ad killing plugin for Firefox. That blocks the spaceball.gif file, allowing access to the file underneath.

That would explain why when you try "view image" it shows a blank screen as well.

If what I heard in the past is correct, the "spaceball.gif" is actually a blank graphic (like an invisible shield) that overlays the actual .jpg image, so that when you try to save, you're saving the invisible shield, and not the image underneath. I cannot remember the countermeasure for this, however.
