I'm seeing this in KDE's bugzilla web site (among others), which I have 
always used without this problem. And Firefox correctly identify the 
file as "PNG image" in the open file dialog. It seems this is not the 
cause of the problem. Also, the problem is just with PNG files, but not 
other types of image files.
