Please insert a disk into drive E:." (Cancel, Try Again, Continue) Dialog box is really random - only opens every 9/10 times, buttons sometimes do different things (like pressing 'try again', then I need to press 'continue' twice to get rid of the box) Expected Results: Well nothing should happen. Firefox should ignore the fact that that path no longer exists because it is a removable disk.

I have experienced this bug in FireFox 0.9.3. I am on a Windows XP Professional machine. I know I had been downloading files directly to my floppy drive (drive A:) a night or two ago (by right-clicking and choosing the save file as option), now every time I try and do that same thing (right click, and try and "save file as") before I have the option to choose where to download the file to, it tells me that No Disk is available in A:, after choosing the cancel option, it goes in an infinite loop, similiar to the one described in Bug #249693 (however there is no correlation with MS Excel).
