Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.go to a download site 2.click on a download with a complicated filename e.g bad.exe?adsf-adf.exe or jikgio.php (should be an .sql, which is created dynamically by php) 3.wait until the error message comes Actual Results: just couldn't download that file with mozilla Expected Results: download the file I wanted
