Firefox binary/octet-stream error when opening Thumbed images in Facepunch
6 replies, posted
Whenever I try to open a thumbed image in Firefox, it would either come up with this:

Or this:

I have tried disabling my addons, and doing a full reset in Firefox with no luck. This also happens on my laptop.
This just started today, so maybe Facepunch got a little update that broke thumbed images for Firefox?

It appears that imgur links work fine.

oops bad reading. it seems you have already tried disabling all your extensions
I was just about to post the same thing but searched first.
Got the same problem. Imgur works for me, too.
I had this issue for few days now and it's not just facepunch but trying to access thumbed Steam screenshots does the same thing.
For example when I try to open the picture below in another window it asks me to save or open it instead. So far pages that don't do that are imgur and minus.

So I was searching through bunch of pages and nothing that would fix it. One post said to update but that's already done. Someone suggested it's the server's problem. Help, please?
That same picture does the same thing for me, on Chrome.
I tried Explorer and in that I don't have this issue. What the hell causes this?
Oh so its not just me?
I wonder if it could be something caused by a recent Firefox update or something. Hopefully they roll out a patch soon.
Yeah probably just a firefox bug.
