This should be fixed by the new saving code Ben just landed.  Please retest with 
a recent (0.9.7 or recent nightly) build.

Actually, evangelism.  The HTTP header has:

Content-disposition: atachment; filename=image2.jpg

Note that "attachment" is mis-spelled.

It is a deliberate misspelling .. one of the authors gives an explation further down the page.

Copy / Paste from the bulletin board:

<< (PHP code)
if (strstr($HTTP_USER_AGENT,"MSIE")) {
  $attachment = '';
} else {
  $attachment = ' atachment;';
  // We could still be MSIE behind a firewall blocking USER_AGENT so use
something that will work!!
}
>>
And a bit further down the thread:
<<
If do not specify "attachment" at all than IE is happy. Netscape 6 on the other
hand doesn't know what to call the file when you download it.

If we specify "attachment" than Netscape is happy except IE will prompt you
twice when downloading.

Now we can ask the browser what they are and set it properly, as you can see I
put in a check to do but we still have a problem. If the browser is behind a
proxy and sending us the wrong browser line than we could use the wrong value.

Making it 'atachement' works for both browsers as IE ignores it an treats it as
if it isn't there and Netscape accepts it at "attachment". If the browsers
change their behavior in the future than we can change attachment.php. You will
find what is there works properly on Netscape and IE now.>>
