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..
