Usually what I do in that situation is (I'm using Internet Explorer) I open up the Source text file, which is in the View menu, near the bottom. It should say "Source" or "View Source". If the picture you want is in a pop up window (which I think is the case with the site you're talking about), right-click (sometimes you have to right-click on the gray edge of the window since the whole page is disabled) and then scroll down to "View Source", which should be about halfway down. I then "Find...", which is under the Edit menu in the file, within the file for ".jpg" or whatever file extension I think the pic might be. There's usually more than one JPG on a web page, so it's sometimes trial and error to find which one is the pic I want. Then I copy the address of the picture itself into the address bar and load it. You are then able to save the pic. It doesn't always work and it's sometimes harder to do at some websites than others, but it works much more often than not.

edit: I tried it out on the site you mentioned and I'm afraid it's gonna be one of those one's where this method doesn't work. They really don't want you to save their pics. And it's totally fucking annoying that the entire window closes when you do right click. Sorry. This method does work on about 99% of all other sites, but this one's just stubborn. You'll have to try someone else's method. Good luck.
