Hello andy0618
To find out what your JPEG quality settings are go to Tools » Options... » Write » JPEG:
To my knowledge, there is unfortunately no way to completely reverse-engineer or undo changes made to a photo, especially when saved in JPEG format, because JPEG compression by definition is a lossy process.
I would suggest that you first determine if the original file can be recovered (= un-deleted/un-erased) from the memory card of the camera the picture was taken with.
It's a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P73, so we are dealing with Memory Stick or Memory Stick Pro, which is supported by most data rescue programs.
If recovery isn't an option or if it doesn't succeed you can try to reduce the artifacts (壓縮比率與不自然痕跡) on the altered/over-compressed image.
To get a sense of the original image quality I extracted the embedded low-res thumbnail with Jhead (jhead.exe -st "th_&i" dsc03037.jpg):

- Tutorial: JPEG Artifact Removal Fig.#1
When an image is saved in .jpg format, compression is used to reduce the file size. If the compression level is too high, artifacts occur in the saved image. Artifacts take on several forms in images, but generally they can be described as a “blotchy look”. Artifacts can often give the appearance of color leakage at the edges of objects in the image. People using digital cameras, who use high compression, will likely find themselves using this feature a lot. In this tutorial we will focus on using the JPEG Artifact Removal feature to improve an image that contains artifacts.

- VicMan: JPEG Enhancer (f/k/a JPEG Fixer)
“JPEG” is the default data format for digital photos. It is used in all digital cameras and most of the photo editing applications. If you set the image quality not to a 100% (“super-fine”) in order to reduce the disk/memory stick space, your images become blotchy and get ruined with the JPEG artifacts.
JPEG Enhancer is an advanced application that lets you remove the artifacts and a blotchy look from your images, making them look as if they have been saved at a 100% (“super-fine”) quality. It is based on advanced science-intensive technology that lets you repair images quickly, smoothly and easily.
If you are a home user, it will help you to improve the quality of your digital photos. It is also a must-have tool for publishers, design studios and web pros, helping you to recover the overcompressed images, supplied by your clients, to make them ready-to-publish and ready-to-print.- Quick Tour (Java animation)
