(SeaMonkey :: Download & File Handling, defect)

Description

[Boyd Elrod]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826

All files I download with Download Manager are not accessible to other PCs on
the network.  If I move the file from its original location to any other
directory, the files become accessible across the network.  File access on the
local machine is not a problem.
  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Download files to shared destination directory, e.g. c:\downloads\hp610en
2.Access this shared directory from another PC
3.Double-click the file to execute it
Actual Results:  
Received from Windows: Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file.
 You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.


Expected Results:  
I dunno.

I can avoid this problem by using another download manager, such as GetRight.
