Is right-click and save image disabled?

There is a free package here http://phatwares.dyndns.org:8080/contentPB.html that downloads public Photobucket content.

What OS are you running?

The right-click (on top of the image) and "Save Image" StuartN has mentioned should work, but you will have to navigate into "My Pictures" within that "save" window before making your final "save" click. And if you are running Windows 7, you might find that a bit confusing because Windows 7 uses a "library" system where you really only save into shadow folders having names matching actual destinations.

Right-click on the image and then click "Save Picture As", and that will open a "Save Picture" dialog box with some options available ... but neither do I understand Win7's filing system. As best I can tell, it saves stuff somewhere and then places "library links" in the various folders like "Public", "Pictures", "My Pictures" and so on.
