: 	As far as I know, Handmade Software's special "JPG" format was designed
: to "better compress palleted-image". It is a different graphics format. Simply
: remove the header will not help you anything except a few bytes free disk space.

  I had pretty good luck just deleting the first 332 chars of the file.  That
removed the HSI header and the remainder was a normal Jpeg file.  Of course
the image in question was a repost from a few months ago, so I did it more to
see if it could be done than anything else.
