Yes, Firefox annoyingly won't allow you to right click then save in the pop-up windows, but luckily IE has retained the user friendly capability of doing so. You really need at least two browsers because neither FF or IE seem too interested in fixing their respective weak points. Just like IE obeys those annoying scripts that prevent right clicking on a page or image whereas FF can easily be configured to do what you the user actually tells it to do (or not do) instead of what somebody else thinks it should. Of course anything that shows up on your screen can easily enough be screen captured so all this annoyance is ultimately just a waste of everyone's time.
