You can right click on any link and select "Save Link Target As" or in the
Mail Browser, right click an attachment and click "Save As".  There
is a problem when this happens.

Here's the Javascript errors that get thrown:
Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code:
0x80040154 (NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED) [nsIMessenger.saveAttachment]" 
nsresult: "0x80040154 (NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED)"  location: "JS frame ::
chrome://messenger/content/msgHdrViewOverlay.js :: saveAttachment :: line 867" 
data: no]

OR

Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80570015
(NS_ERROR_XPC_CI_RETURNED_FAILURE) [nsIJSCID.createInstance]"  nsresult:
"0x80570015 (NS_ERROR_XPC_CI_RETURNED_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame ::
chrome://communicator/content/contentAreaUtils.js :: makeFilePicker :: line 706"
 data: no]
Source File: chrome://communicator/content/contentAreaUtils.js
Line: 706


It then does absolutely nothing with actually downloading the files.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Mozilla
2. Try to download Something
3.

Actual Results:  
Javascript error thrown and there is no download.

Expected Results:  
Open up a download manager or progress bar or download the file without
progress depending on which option is picked in the preferences.



I am on Solaris 9 with Gnome 2.0.

does it happen with a clean profile ? Also in latest 1.4 build ?

Reporter: does it happen with a clean profile? does it happen with a current
