There is no one size fits all in image optimization.

In that case they are over compressed.

Here is an article on optimizing images in Fireworks that you might find 
useful.

best setting to optimize images for web
Mon, 5 May 2008 19:11:25 +0000
What is the best setting to optimize my images for web? jpg? gif? png? Im 
looking for clean images that load fast. I find  my images are either taking 
too long to load and look good, or they load fast and look dirty. I can see 
artifacts. When looking around the web, I see other sites that have lots of 
graphics that relaly pop i ncolor with no artifacts but still seem to load 
fast. Is there a general rule of thumb to use one image over another? and how 
much should I optimize it? Is jpg quality 35-40 a good starting point? png? 
What are pros and cons of each. Thanks
