Please try a newer build and/or with a fresh profile.

WFM using Firefox 0.8 on Windows XP. Reporter, please make sure that you
installed Firefox into an empty directory, and that you're using a clean
profile, as Jose said. In order to get a clean profile, delete/move away your
%AppData%\Phoenix directory and let Firefox create a new profile and then try
again. Remember that if you delete this folder, all your Bookmarks and stuff
will disappear, so you may want to just temporarily move it away.

I'm going to mark this as WFM, as this is the first bug I've seen on this, and
if this was a problem for a lot of users we would have heard about it by now.
Having said this, if you (or anyone else) can still reproduce this after doing a
clean install and using a clean profile, please reopen the bug and give us the
name of the website you tried and steps to reproduce.

For example, to go bugzilla.mozilla.org, and try and save the dinosaur logo by
right clicking on it and selecting save image as. That should work.
