Every time I try to download a file, I get the following:

C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\TEMP\<random file name> could not be saved,
because the source file could not be read.

Try again later, or contact the server administrator

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install Mozilla
2.Try to download file
3.

Actual Results:  
Steps as listed above.  Tried turning off download manager with no change in
results.  (I installed cygwin with wget, and that works just fine).

Other note:  My download directory may be set to C:\download, which does exist,
but there is no way to change where this is.
