User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.10) Gecko/2009042316 Firefox/3.0.10

After a right-click "Save Link As", when changing the filename, hitting the Enter key randomly does not act as a "Save" function.  Usually, Enter will act normally as if the Save button was clicked, but often it takes more button-presses, as many as 8 have been noted.  Note: This bug is noted on a Win2000 Professional system, AND a WinXP PC.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right-click a link, choose 'Save Link As'
2. Alter the title of the filename using the keyboard
3. Try to press the Enter key to complete the task.
Actual Results:  
Sometimes the Enter key works as it should, other times a second or third button press is necessary, and on some occasions up to EIGHT button presses were needed.  (Note: both keyboards tested on other programs to ensure the problem is not keyboard-related.)

Expected Results:  
The Enter key should complete the Save function on the first press.
