Firefox asks what to do with some PNG images instead of just displaying them

Not sure what is going on here, but some PNG images seem to confuse Firefox, while others are fine. While some PNGs just display when clicked on (eg: when wanting to see a full size image from a thumbnail), others make Firefox ask what I want to do with it. When I select "Firefox 3.6.8" it ends with an error:

/tmp/elementary_gtk_theme_by_DanRabbit-1.png could not be opened, because an unknown error occurred.

Try saving to disk first and then opening the file.

... but when I manually made it open with "/usr/bin/firefox" (I'm in Ubuntu) the image opens fine. I was beginning to think this was now universal for PNGs, but I was opening offending ones from the same site, and going elsewhere showed that some PNGs will be displayed as usual. Does anyone have any idea why this would happen to some PNGs but not all? Here is a link to one of the problem PNGs:

It opens without issue in Opera. Hope someone can make sense of this. Cheers

That happens when the server is asking Firefox not to open the image on the browser. The thing is, Firefox respects this request, and other browsers might not. This is intended behavior.

Fair enough... but that's kind of weird where I was having this problem, as I was clicking on smaller images to see them in full size, so I figured the default would be to view them (which is the case in Opera).
