Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

Description

[Therese Shellabarger]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2

I believe the upload was not completed properly to begin with. Full file size is
4.7MB but on 4/20/05 I show a file download of only 1,367K !!! This is better
than the weekend when I tried and got less than 200K, but still not the full
file. I'm not having any problems using Firefox 1.0.2 with other file downloads,
so I think it's gotta be a bad upload.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to URL
2. Click on "Free Download"
(http://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-1.0.3&os=win&lang=en-US)
3. When download manager finishes, click on file to view filesize. That's all
you can do with it other than to delete it.

Actual Results:  
A little box pops up. "7-Zip" "Unspecified Error"

Expected Results:  
It should have tried to install, or unzip, whatever.

Mozilla uses a mirror system to distribute the exe, with out a specific mirror
it will be hard to track down which site at http://mozilla.org/mirrors.html
served you the bad file. There is some work being done on testing mirror for
accuracy http://wiki.mozilla.org/Bouncer. There is also a chance that there is a
problem at your end.

Marking WFM, there's nothing useful can be done here.
Could has also been a temporary glitch at one of the mirrors.
