Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 230870

(Toolkit :: Downloads API, defect)

Description

[Poly Progr@ms]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; fr-FR; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041027 Firefox/1.0RC1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; fr-FR; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041027 Firefox/1.0RC1

When FireFox crashes (well, that's another problem ;)), files that were being
downloaded won't be downloaded after the browser is restarted. The "Pause" link
won't work and you can only cancel the download.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch a file download
2. While the file is being downloaded, just make FireFox crash (that shouldn't
be too difficult)
(3. Close the talkback agent or report the bug)
4. Restart your browser and look in the Download Manager
Actual Results:  
The file is showed but there is no progress bar & no download is perfomed. Pause
link won't respond.

Expected Results:  
FireFox should either resume the download or restart it from scratch.

I experienced this bug on FireFox 1.0RC1 and FireFox 0.9.
