213468 - SAVING dialog box hangs after downloading large files

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Core Graveyard :: File Handling, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030717

After downloading a large file, the SAVING dialog box doesn't change to it's
"download complete" status.  The process keeps the file handle open as well.

I tried this twice.  First time it happened.  Second time it did not.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download ftp://netbsd.pair.com/pub/NetBSD/iso/1.6.1/i386cd.iso
2. Wait for the download.
3. Eventually, the download will reach 100%.
4. Get tired of waiting for the mode to switch to the "completed" status.
5. Click on X in the upper right corner of the dialog box to close it.
5. Try to change the file name.
Actual Results:  
The OS will prevent modifying the file because the process is still touching the
file.

Expected Results:  
The dialog box would change to the "download complete" mode and the file handle
would be released.
