Click on: English, Windows, USA, SF1 (or other links on this page) gives error
"c:\~\8i6o9xgp.zip could not be saved, because the source file could not be
saved. Try again later..."
This same link works in IE 5.5 on the same PC. Mozilla 1.2a also works.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on link
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
gives error message

Expected Results:  
begun download
when does is give the error?  immeadiately?  What do you have Mozilla configured
to do with zip files?

I get a dialog to ask me if I want to open or save the file, then another dialog
to pick where to save and then a download progress window (I have download
manager turned off, of course)

==> File Handling
Assignee: blaker → law
Component: Download Manager → File Handling
Occurs whether download manager or dialog is enabled.

1.2b was installed as an upgrade to an existing 1.2a installation which did not
have this problem.
