possibly another dupe of bug 171441?

Tom: does download manager work for you? can you download files at all?

tom emailed me (tom - for future reference - go to the bugzilla URL and type
your comments there, so they get recorded in the database) to say that
downloading other files works fine, so not a dupe of the downloads bug... not
sure what else it might be though...

the download that worked was @ home on my iBook(10.2.1) but this a.m. @ work on
my winBlozebox(nt2kpro) downloads _don't_ work:-(

aha... in which case this is the bug i thought it was, so i'll mark it as a
duplicate. the problem is caused by installing one version of mozilla over
another. uninstall mozilla, delete the program files\mozilla.org folder, and
then reinstall, and that should fix it.

(don't worry - your profile and settings will be unaffected, but you may want to
copy the content of the plugins folder so you don't have to reinstall any
plugins you might have)
