I'm having the same problem. I use an online program for downloads; worked last week, doesn't work this week. Only change I made was to install FireFox 2.0. Is reproducible but does not happen when I use IE, which I don't want to go back to using but need to until this is fixed.
The problem: I can see the files I want to download and choose them; in the dialog box I can choose save, open, etc... but the "ok" button is grayed out. Leaves me no choice but to cancel. I tried checking options/permissions but cannot find any way to change it.

Thanks!
