When downloading a file with the download manager from a server that doesn't
state the size of the file in the http header, the download manager displays the
progress of the file correctly until the files gets downloaded over 1 mb, then
the currently downloaded size is no longer shown.

It might sound a bit complicated, but here is a screenshot that will clarify
things up: http://images.ajunne.tk/Firefox/progress.png . As you can see the
currently downloaded filesize is nog longer shown.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download a file from a server that does not display the filesize in the http
header
Actual Results:  
The currently downloaded filesize is only shown when the currently downloaded
part of the file is smaller than 1 mb.

Expected Results:  
The downloaded filesize should always be shown
