Visiting www.fondosescritorio.com and clicking on one of the images it opens a
new windows. If you move your cursor outside of the window, it closes. It also
closes when you try to save the image with rightbutton/save image, so you cannot
save the image.
It only happens on Linux!

4. Move your cursor outside the windows or try to save the image

It should close.

It only happens on Linux. I havent experienced the same problems on Windows.

What do you mean? It's a problem with the website or with the browser?

I'm sorry but i'm not a web nor phoenix/mozilla developer :(

Mozilla is working exactly as intended. 

The web site has designed the popup pages to close as soon as you stop focusing
on them. This will happen in any javascript-capable web browser, on any
operating system. However, X11 is particularly affected because of "focus
follows mouse".

Your options are to contact the site owner and ask them to stop doing it, or to
delve into the HTML source code and see how to open the images directly.
