Using nightly build 20011024, I can't download MP3 files from mp3.com. For example, from the page: http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/86/digital_ritual.html When I click any of the "download" song links the browser shows an empty page with "<html><body></body></html>" displayed. It then asks me whether I want to open the file in Winamp (which I manually configured as a helper application) or save it to disk. If I try to save to disk nothing happens. Mozilla 0.9.4 does not have this problem. It does not display the empty "<html><body></body></html>" page and the file download starts as expected.

related to bug 106558 ?
Using nightly build from 11/01 ("build ID 2001110103"), Mozilla now hangs, using 100% CPU time, when clicking the "download" link from pages on MP3.com (such as the one referenced in the original report).
Using nightly build from 11/05 ("build ID 2001110503") the hang is gone and the original bug behavior is back, exactly as originally reported. Just ignore the comment above this one.
I can no longer reproduce the bug in the last 3 nightly builds (...2001110903). It looks FIXED to me.
