All pictures being saved from the net are JFIF extensions and cannot be uploaded to web sites. How do I prevent this JFIF from happening. It doesn't happen with Explorer.

I note you have have modified Firefox with Yahoo or may even have downloaded a modified version from Yahoo. I have no idea the extent of those modifications and whether that affects this.

You also have a picasa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picasa) plugin. I imagine that also could affect image downloads.

As a troubleshooting step does disabling the plugins and running in safe mode help ?
