User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8a6) Gecko/20050111

When downloading a file, for example, from "save to disk" when clicking on a
link for an unknown filetype, trying to overwrite an existing file gives a
dialog box confirming the action, but none of the buttons in it are active.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In Preferences...Navigator, set:
     Downloads...When saving a file=Prompt for download location
     Helper Applications...application/x-gzip=save it to disk, always ask
2. Open a webpage containing a link to a .gz file, for example,
http://www.mozilla.org/products/mozilla1.x/
3.  Click on a .gz URL (Download Now...Mac OS X, in the above example).
4.  Select Save to disk, click OK in download window.
5.  Save using default name (mozilla-mac-1.7.5.dmg.gz) in file manager window.
6.  Repeat steps 3-5, using the same URL and download location and filename.
Actual Results:  
After step 5, I have the named file on my hard drive. After repeating steps 3-5,
I get a dialog saying that a file by that name already exists, do I want to
replace it. The buttons are marked Cancel (the default) and Replace. Trying to
click either one produces no result. Pressing escape or return gets me back to
the file manager window of step 5. Entering a different name or download
directory allows file in the second pass through step 5 to be saved successfully.

Expected Results:  
I should be able to click "Cancel" to abort the overwrite (and return to the
file manager) or click "Replace" (and file shuold be downloaded and overwrite
the existing one of that name).
