Hi, I'm using the binary download of Thunderbird version 1.0RC1 (20041201).

I've noticed that if I try to save an attachment when the destination file
already exists, and I click on cancel when asked if I want to overwrite the
existing file,
the save dialog substitutes the ':' next to the dirve letter for a '-'.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Save attachment 'foo.bar' to C:\xxx\foo.bar, that already exists
2. Choose not the overwrite file foo.bar when asked
3. Alternate save file location dialog shows C-\xxx\foo.bar, if I click OK, I'll
complain directory .\-\xxx\ doesn't exist
