FireFox 1.0.1 does not allow proper downloading of files with filenames that
contain spaces.

I.e.

When downloading the file, "Copy Of Excel Spreadsheet.xls", it will save it as
"copy" without an extension.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find a file with spaces in the filename that you wish to save.
2. Click on it and save the file.

Actual Results:  
A file was saved with an improper filename that does not have an extension.

Expected Results:  
It should have saved the file with the original intact filename.

Also adjusting summary in case someone who *can* reproduce this bug comes along
- this is about spaces, not about file name length.
