If I click on a link on a c file and make it Open With firefox.exe in the
download manager dialog, the file is downloaded, and opened. However, Firefox
reloads the current tab/window endlessly (endless loop) without displaying the c
file.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the example page.
2. Click on a c file link.
3. Make it open with firefox.exe in the download manager dialog asking you for
the handling.
4. Click OK.
5. Wait until it's downloaded.
6. Enjoy the endless reload/loop.
Actual Results:  
The current tab is being reloaded in an endless loop, the only solutions are
either to press Stop or to close the tab/window.

Expected Results:  
It should have opened the source file and displayed the text.

I'm using the Download Manager Tweak 0.6.3 and the Mostly Crystal 1.0 theme by
CatThief.
