internet image size not set when dropping in uploader

    Hay,
    The Media uploader of the standard wordpress editor is not working when I drop files in it directly from the internet. Everything seems fine, but when I want to edit the image (from the media library) the image editor tells me “Image data does not exist. Please re-upload the image.”

    When I use php’s getimagesize on these images it returns false. So, I cannot seem to retrieve the size of the images. This only happens when I drag images from an internet-site into the “Upload files” section.

    An example of such a file is here:
    http://wpdev.concertzender.nl/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/934kukd9.bmp
    (It shows the Attachment Display Settings taken from this site. A feature I do not see when drag-dropping file from the internet.)

    My question is:
    1. I there a setting to make WordPress add the width and height when dropping files from the internet?
    2. If not, is there a way to retrieve the width and height of such images by using a function other than getimagesize()?

    Thanks a lot!
