Mozilla Firefox 3 beta 1 & 2
Running on Microsoft xp sp2 and current updates (as of dec 18/07)

If you delete/cut/move a downloaded file before Firefox has a chance to finish its virus scan it leaves the downloaded file entry stuck in a permanent "scanning..." loop, these files cannot be cleared via normal privacy clear methods (screenshots can be provided). 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Download a 20mb file(or bigger, its only to give you time to delete the file whilst being scanned)
2.When its finished Firefox will then scan the file for virii
3.WHILST its scanning move or delete the file, the file will move/delete and the download window gets stuck in a "scanning loop"
Actual Results:  
The download manager window gets stuck and dispalys a scanning progress bar and the words scanning for viruses.....

sometimes download window displays blank, starting another download will redisplay the invalid entries.

Expected Results:  
If entries are moved then scanning should stop or file should be locked untill scanning finishes
