Please follow the instructions at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode#Windows to see if it still doesn't work. I found some extensions that say they are compatible actually break some right-click context menus, so listing yours would help you figure it out - although that becomes a support issue making this bug invalid.

Confirming. Ran FF in safe mode with all safe mode options checked - still nothing happens.

Please check with a fresh profile too, if the problem persists. Information how to do this you will find here: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles

The problem does persist with a newly-created profile. In fact, I didn't EVER manage to succeed using this command.

Performed steps:
1. Launch "firefox.exe -ProfileManager". It opens the startup page (with pictures) and Google search in the 2nd tab.
2. Tools->Settings...->Content tab->uncheck "load images automatically"->OK
3. reload (f5) the startup page. Now it loads without pictures.
4. Rclick, say, "Welcome to FF" placeholder -> View image. Nothing happens.

(Just to make it clear: I'm talking about the "View image" option, not the "Open image" one. The latter one opens the image in a new tab and works fine. I expect the former option to replace the image placeholder with its content in-place.)

Of course, at first it showed the profile manager, and I created a new profile and set to use it.

Thanks for the clarification. You haven't said in your original comment that you have unchecked "load images automatically". This is indeed a duplicate of bug 417545.
