How do I save GIFs to my desktop?

I used to be able to save GIFs just fine by dragging them to my desktop, but one day it stopped working and now I can only save them as videos or snapshots. Both are obviously extremely inconvenient.

I'm using a Macbook Air, running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5.

Thank you for all the help!

Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause Firefox issues. Disable All of them.
