Ain't no way PIX will do this.

Content filtering refers to looking at the files going across it
and possibly blocking them pending their content - ie if
they are porn or come from suspect sites - not what
the user does with them once they've got them. Even if this
was doing what you wanted it requires an extra server (the
content filtering server) which I think is about $8k - a lot.

Without control over the desktops I can't see how you can achieve
what you're trying to do. The only possible exception is that if
the users were using a browser and viewing content on a server
you control. You might then be able to do something with activeX etc
(ie disable the save as function) in the browser.
