The e-mail address used for the Talkback report is: tom.williams@diversifiedsoftware.com I can generate another one, if necessary. Peace....
Run "\Program Files\mozilla.org\Mozilla\components\talkback.exe" and type in the talkback id from your crash as a comment into this bug report please.
Duh... thanks for the clarification. :) Here are some talkback ids: TB17608510Y TB17608402Y TB17608355Y Let me know if you need anything else. Peace.....

Doron, should I ask you for TB17608510Y?
Tom, do you still crash using 1.4 or 1.5a ?
Well, I'm currently running Netscape 7.1: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 Netscape/7.1 (ax) and the download worked just fine. I'm planning on installing a 1.5 nightly build for Win32 and will try that as well. If the fact that this worked in Netscape 7.1 is evidence enough of this being fixed, go ahead and close the bug report. By the way, why is the bug report in "unconfirmed" status if I posted the Talkback IDs for the three crashes I generated before opening this bug report? Just curious... :) Peace... Tom
Works fine in Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030804 Thanks! Peace...
