I am unable to reproduce this.  I've made major changes to the
downloadProgress.* stuff so I'll presume its been fixed.  If you can reproduce,
please reopen.

*spam* changing qa contact from [e-mail] to me ([e-mail]) 
on 121 open or resolved (but not verified) bugs.  sorry for the spam everybody, 
but most of these bugs would just remain dormant and not checked by QA 
otherwise.  I'm not sure how so many bugs have nobody as their QA contact, but 
I suspect this is the fault of some sort of bugzilla corruption that happened 
at some point (most of these bugs are in the 20000-26000 range, and I don't see 
where in the activity log that QA contact explicitly changed to 
[e-mail])

Anyways, sorry again for spam.  If you really get annoyed, I'm usually 
available in #mozilla on IRC for torture.
