User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1a+) Gecko/20020715

I normally save all software in /home/will/software.
If I open the download manager from Tools menu, and then click 'Show in Browser'
a new mozilla windows opens and then an error message appears saying 'The file
/will/software does not exist. Please check and try again.' I am NOT downloading
anything at the time.

However the URL entry box shows: 'file:/home/will/software'

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Tools -> Download Manager
2. Show in Browser
3. Error message appears.

Actual Results:  Click OK and close window with window manager

Expected Results:  displayed file listing ???

Using buildid 20030109 for solaris 8/sparc. I can't reproduce this. I opened my
download manager, picked a couple of past downloads and hit "show in browser"
for each. In every case a browser window opened displaying a properly
constructed file:// URL for the directory that the item was downloaded to.

Will, can you reproduce this with a current copy of mozilla?
