Hello Frederic.

Yes, this is by design. This happens because Firefox respects the site's (actually, the server's) request that the images be loaded from an external program. Apparently other browsers don't respect that request.

It is an annoyance, yes, but you should ask the site's webmaster to stop that behavior in their site. That's what I do, personally.

The image files are send as content type application/octet-stream Firefox will always offer to save images as that content type.

Yes, but I want my visitors to be able to open the pictures in the browser..

You can only do that if the server sends an image as an image type (e.g. image/jpeg or image/png) and not as application/octet-stream Then users can right-click and use "Save Link as" to save the images.
