I've been running 7.0b1 for a couple of weeks now and have noticed a
problem with doing what you mention -- reading AppleLink image files
off of "Beta Bang".  Unlike you, however, I just get a message about
being unable to open the file.  My short-term fix was to copy the
files in question to my disk, read them there, then delete them.

Sounds like AppleLink is assuming a bit too much about the
writeability of the file it's reading..
