How can I regain the choice of merely opening/viewing an e-mail photo attachment or downloading it and taking up unnecessary disk space?

Idiot Internet Explorer always gave me the option of merely opening a document or saving it to my hard drive. I thought Firefox was giving me that option also, until I started realizing over the past two or three months - I've been using Firefox since December - that every photo I look at is being downloaded and saved onto my hard drive!

I had zero disk space left to do Internet security updates with last Thursday. Been cleaning out my "Downloads" file. Most of the stuff I didn't even choose to download. It's just being saved in the file automatically.
