Just like a previous poster, I was downloading an DVD ISO image of Suse 9.2.  It
started out normal (but FF didn't know the size of the file).  After a while, I
went to check on it's progress, and it had turned negative (see attached image).
 I'm not done downloading it yet, but I downloaded another Suse DVD ISO image
last night (32 bit version) and it completed successfully with no problems.  I
didn't actually get a change to check on it because I let it download while I
was asleep - so I couldn't tell you if it went negative last night.

Thanks!

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Go to Suse
2.  Choose your favorite DVD ISO image
3.  Let download for about 20 minutes.
4.  Get more than 1.5 gigs into it.
5.  Watch it turn negative?
