Was uploading .png image, and stopped the page loading, as i realised i wanted
to make some changes. openeed the image in MSpaint, made the changes, tried to
save, and couldn't. closed the imageshack window, tried to save again, and
couldnt. had to close firefox entirely before i could save, then open it again
to upload the newly saved image.

Paint error message "A sharing violation occured while accessing [filename]"

Have just managed to save the image, while trying to repeat the error for a
third time- cancelled upload, tryed to save, wouldn't. went back to typing here,
then tried to save again, and it did...

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. make sure at least 2 firefox windows are open.
2. start up loading an image to fileshack (mine was ~300k, and on 56k slow to
upload)
3. open the image in paint, and quickly edit. try to save.
4. stop the page loading using FF stop button
5. try to save.
6. close fileshack window.
7. try to save
8. close ff completely, and save!!

Actual Results:  
it saved after step 8.

Expected Results:  
allowed me to save the image after i stopped it uploading.
