Firefox is redownloading images when saving, instead of saving them from the cache

This happens with every image, whether the website is properly cached or not.

Firefox insists on re-downloading the image instead of fetching it from the memory/disk cache and I find that behavior to be unacceptable.

I have already tried: Changing browser.cache.check_doc_frequency to 0 or 2 and setting browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone to false.

The second actually worked for a while when this first started happening, but then it started again, probably after one update or another.

I don't want an add-on specially for this (unless it actually works with the usual save/save as functions), this should be a default or at least toggle-able behavior for any browser.

You can look at this extension:

That doesn't fix the wrong default behavior of firefox. It just means I will have more clutter when I right click things. Unless it actually replaces the "save image as" option.

Even so, you shouldn't require an add-on for that.


Sorry, I'm really annoyed by this behavior returning to firefox yet again and this time, I can't seem to fix it.

I'm not going to be using that fail add-on.


I want my default save from cache functionality back.


Edit:

Nevermind, switched to Firefox4 and it works fine there. Bye bye FF3.
