Details

This is a side-effect of bug 98360, which forces Mozilla to prompt the user to download an attached file (which has Content-disposition: Attachment in its HTTP Headers). Since the Helper App dialog is displayed every time, the "Always ask before opening this type of file" line+checkbox is useless in this case, and should be removed. It only confuses the user.
