Problem with a .JPG

Hello, a user of my site uploaded yesterday on my server a weird .JPG image which ImageMagick doesn't seem to be able to reduce in size, not even hugely reducing its quality with the mogrify command (actually the image seems to reduce a bit but only of a few kb. I think the size reduction is very low considering that I used for testing a "mogrify - quality 5 image.jpg" and had a reduction from 600kb to 520kb about...).

I uploaded the image HERE hoping that somone could give me some hint about this .JPG.... any help?

Use
  • identify -verbose file.jpg
to find out what's in it. Use
  • convert -strip ...
to get rid of the cruft.
