User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5

On some pages, when you right click to save the picture, the picture moves to center it from top to bottom in the viewing space as the menu to allow you to save it appears.  This only happens on some pages, and only started happening with the advent of version 1.5 .  An example of a page where this doesn't happen is:  http://www.thongsdaily.com/viewer/358055MTEyNzZJdEc3ODE3/

This is very annoying if you need information in the picture to help you name the file.  It forces you to save it, go back, bring it up with other software to save as or rename the file after you have saved it from the original web page.  This NEVER happened before version 1.5, and it does not happen for all web pages.  (An example of where it doesn't happen can be found at http://www.thongsdaily.com/viewer/358055MTEyNzZJdEc3ODE3/ )



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  open a page with a picture that extends past the bottom of the viewing space in the window, like:  http://www.asianbattle.com/imgview/3615ZnNfYTAzYXg4MTA4/
2.  right click to bring up the menu that will allow you to save the pic, and the pic shifts down as if centering in the viewing window space, extending beyond view both above and below the viewing space.
3.  sure, you can save the picture, but maybe you wanted information to be visible in the picture as you named the file you wish to save it as, you can't.  

Actual Results:  
The picture moves where you can no longer see a part that you might have wanted to be able to see while naming the file you save the picture to.

Expected Results:  
The picture should never move as you try to save it.  It should stay exactly where it is in the window viewing space as it does when you try to save the picture found at http://www.thongsdaily.com/viewer/358055MTEyNzZJdEc3ODE3/

Again, this never happened before version 1.5 and it doesn't happen when using Internet Explorer.  Something in the current version causes this problem consistently.
