I was downloading a YouTube FLV video (11 mb) and after the file was 50% downloaded, FireFox said the file had downloaded. Upon running , only half the clip was playable.
Happens mostly with .zip and .rar archives.
Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download any file, preferably of zip type which is over 10 MBs
2.Problem appears mostly on slow connections under 100 kb/ps
3.After the file download is halfway done , the download will exit and Mozilla will report of having downloaded all files succesfully
Actual Results:
The file downloads partially and is worthless.
Expected Results:
The file should have downloaded fully.

You're using an extension to download, right? Are you using Video DownloadHelper, or another one, if so? You should be aware of https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/discussions/?AddOnID=3006, if you are.
Version: unspecified → 2.0 Branch
No Stephen, I'm using the download manager which comes with firefox.
As I said, the bug happens mostly with zip and rar archive files.
