When downloading a *.iso file (550MB) with download manager and out of disk
space error caused it to fail on near completion. Cleared space on partition in
error expecting to restart. where left off however, had to restart form the
beginning again.

Although the final target partiton had enough disk space (5GB), download Manager
wants to create 2 temporary files under the Windows users profile in Win2k.
These are %userprofile%\local Settings\temp and %userprofile%\Application
data\Mozilla\...\...slt\cache both the same size as the current downloaded status.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Win2k box with C: drive 1GB free space D: drive 5GB free space.
2. User temp and mozilla cache folders located under Windows user profile on C:
drive.
3. Download file approx 550MB choosing folder on D: drive as target folder



Actual Results:  
Download fails with 'out of disk space' error message with 50MB of download to
go. Unable to restart after clearing down disk space on affected partition.

Expected Results:  
1. You should be able to restart where left off - the temp files are still there!
2. Temp file should be placed in a designated download folder chosen by the user
3. No need to have 2 temp copies of file in cache and in user temp directory

This is a duplicate of another existing bug report.

> 3. No need to have 2 temp copies of file in cache and in user temp directory

And this is a duplicate of a third one.

Someone please find one of those three bugs and mark this duplicate.
