From Bugzilla Helper:

When you lcick on a file to download, and don't select a file location to save
the file to, the elapsed time counter increments, so, say, if you leave it for
10 minutes, the instant the file starts to download, the dialog reports 10
minutes have elapsed. This affects the KB/Sec report as well

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.click to download a file
2.wait a while before selecting a file location
3.

Expected Results:  should not start counter until download commences

Except that download commences when you click on the file...  We spool it to a
temporary area, then move it once the download is done and the user has told us
a filename.

mass-verification of Invalid bugs.

if you don't think the report is invalid, please check to see if it has already
been reported (it might be a duplicate instead). otherwise, make sure that there
are steps (a valid test case) that clearly display the issue as an unexpected
defect.
