Works fine for me. Did you try safe-mode? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode_(Firefox)
Or try deleting the file downloads.sqlite in your profile:

I did try both of those methods however the funtion still doesn't. Oh and it also goes for the "Save Link As" and other "Save " " As" functions. I also checked the download manager and it is blank.

Ah perfect! Here's what I did, I reset any preference in the about:config area that have a user set status.

eg.
* browser.download.dir
* browser.download.downloadDir

Then you can just change your download settings the way you want! There, fixed! Thanks anyway Ria! =]
