When I either try and open the Download Manager through the 'Tools' Menu or when
I try and download a file, select a location to save it and the download manager
should come up, instead a window comes up saying I must insert a disc in my A:
(flopppy) drive. No matter what is selected (Continue, Try Again etc) window
keeps reappearing. Window has firefox.exe in title bar. Will not disappear until
Firefox is closed. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Download Manager 

OR  

1. Download file
2. Select destination to save file 


Actual Results:  
Download manager does not open. Window appears telling me that I must insert a
disc into A drive. 

Expected Results:  
Opened the Download Manager

Bug seems to occur on all themes. 

Configuration: 1.0Ghz Celeron, 128MB
