User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021022 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021022 all attempts to download fail with similar message: C:\docume~1\MICHAE~1.000\...\*.* could not be saved, because source file could not be read. This error appeared only after giving my machine a name (MICHAEL) whence windows 2k inserted MICHAEL.000 into the default path for local settings. I have full administrator priveleges (the same error occurs for the administrator). I suspect that the problem is the appearence of a PERIOD in the name of a DIRECTORY (MICHAEL.000) in the path to a file that mozilla wants to open. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.download any file 2. 3. Actual Results: download immediately aborted Expected Results: not aborted!
