IT'S GREAT TO SEE FINAL RELEASE OF FF 3. IT'S STABLE, IT'S SECURE, IT'S FAST, IT'S FANTASTIC, IT'S SUPERB.

BUT WITH ONLY ONE TINY ANNOYANCE THAT HAVE BEEN TORTURING ME FOR PAST ONE YEAR.

I TEND TO SAVE IMAGES MANY TIMES WHEN BROWSING, BUT EVERY TIME I SELECT 'SAVE IMAGE AS...' FROM THE CONTEXT MENU, FF 'COURTEOUSLY' RE-DOWNLOADS THE IMAGE AGAIN FROM WEB.

THIS IS STUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDDDDDDDDDD
.

IF YOU THINK IT'S GOOD TO RE-DOWNLOAD, CAN YOU LET **US** HAVE A CHANCE TO SAVE 'NO THANKS' TO THIS GOODNESS????

BESIDES, THE DOWNLOAD MANAGER POPS UP EVERY TIME UPON SAVING ANYTHING. IF IT IS GOOD FOR SOMETHING, I'D STILL LIKE TO HAVE A CHOICE TO 'SAY NO THANKS'.

OPEN SOURCE IS GREAT, BUT 'FREE' DOES NOT MEAN TRADE 'GOODNESS' FOR 'UNWILLINGNESS'.

I KNOW THERE ARE MANY DUPLICATE BUGS FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM. BUT I CAN REMEMBER IN ONE OF MY PREVIOUS BUG REPORT YOU ADMITTED IT'S 'REGRESSION'.

IT'S SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD TO SEE THIS LONG-LIVING 'REGRESSION' IN FINAL RELEASE.

(I USE FF/OPERA/IE 7 EQUALLY DURING MY DAILYWORK OR LIFE)
