Despite the solution given in the forum, I can't get .jpg listed in the filetype listing for how to deal with various filetypes.
Whenever I click on a .jpg link, the picture opens in Firefox. I want to use a different program, but I can't change it because .jpg does not appear in the list of filetypes for which you can specify actions. I realize there is an answer in the Firefox forum, but I never get the option box that asks me what to do with the file, so I can't get to the "Do this for all such filetypes" checkbox. Help!

JPEG images are viewed as normal browser content and do not generate an Open/Save/Cancel dialog unless the site sends a special header indicating that it should be treated as a download (disposition=attachment instead of inline).
To save the image, your best built-in option is to right-click the image and use Save Image As, or if it's a link to an image, right-click the link and Save Link As.
But to launch the image in a different program, I can't think of a built-in feature that can do this, so you probably need an add-on.
For example, I see there are extensions to open an image in PhotoShop or Fireworks:
- https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/open-with-photoshop/
- https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/open-in-fireworks/
If those programs are not relevant, hopefully there is a more general purpose extension on the site that fits your needs.
