I've encountered a problem that forced me to use *shudder* M$IE to download
files off the 'net. Clicking on the link (on an FTP site viewed through the
browser or any other download sites, AFAICT) will result in Moz saying "(...)
source can't be read", as if the target file was not there.

One good example is the link to download Spamnix at:

<http://www.spamnix.com/download.html>

Clicking on the "download" button or, like I experienced yesterday, clicking on
file links on ibiblio.org will not result in the download to proceed.

I *never* experienced this under Moz before. Am I the only one?
