188726 - "could not be saved" message when right-click on uploaded file and say "save target as"

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 170722

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[smack92604]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

I right-clicked on one of my files and said "save link target as."  After a
pause, an error message came up saying "The link could not be saved.  The web
page might have been removed..."
I then accessed the page in IE, and used the same method successfully to save
the file.
When I went back to Mozilla, I successfully re-downloaded the same file. 
However, when I tried to download other files, the same error came up.  After
this, I could no longer download the original file.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get a Yahoo account.  Go to Briefcase and upload something.
2. Go to http://briefcase.yahoo.com/your_username
3. Do what I said I did in the details.
Actual Results:  
Error message:
"The link could not be saved.  The web page might have been removed..."

Expected Results:  
Open a standard Windows "save as" dialog

After I did the steps in the Details, I went back to IE to re-download the same
old file.  It didn't work.  (It showed me a "getting file information" dialog
for a while, and then said "Internet Explorer cannot download [url].  The site
was not found..."  Mozilla, on the other hand, worked fine.

Don't believe what I put for the reproducibility.  I only downloaded Mozilla
yesterday, and found the bug today.

This should be caused that mozilla sends no referrer.
Please reopen if you see this with a nightly build and set the bug status to
"verified" if it works.
(since bug 170722 is fixed)
