Hi, Why the imgs in the http://oiswww.eumetsat.org/IPPS/html/MSG/RGB/AIRMASS/FULLRESOLUTION/index.htm and others from the satellite service are read as BIN files? Why FF coerces me to SAVE them instead of to show them (after applying View image) just as the Opera browser does? Good Lord! The imgs are JPGs so they must be binaries! But the msg window informs me that "I have chosen to open a ... file which is a BIN file..." etc. I send the similar letter to FF Feedback a year ago without tangible results. Is there any "secretive" setting to change the behavior? Regards
