    go to the firefox website and download the newest version or if you have the newest version just redownload it. possibly just an error when you last downloaded it and just needs to be replaced. also make sure the picture you are trying to save is not on a website that has right privelages restricted to certain users. some websites can actually restrict you saving pictures for copyright purposes

    right click on the image, and "save as", and see if it does it that way, I have been using Firefox since version 1, and no problems saving pics ever.
