Bizarre....whenever I try and download anything Download manager never
initializes, and I get a window with the following text:

C:\documen~1\user\locals~1\temp\xyz(or whatever).exe could not be read. Try
again later, or contact the server administrator.

The browser isn't particularly ratcheted down; I verify cookies, 1st 3 scripting
boxes unchecked (for popups), download manager is ostensibly enabled...

I have resorted to using IE for downloads. I now feel cheap and dirty. Please
help (with my download problem).....

cheers,

Eric Lecht.

slapped me silly...

Mozilla is great. I spread the word far and wide. My friends eventually see the
light. Except my girlfriend. Go figure...

This bug has been fixed a while ago, update your Mozilla, you are using a very
old build.
