New bug as described in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=381157#c89

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. if already exists delete downloads.sqlite
2. start a download
3. in download manager dialog choose "save file"
Actual Results:  
After selecting "save file" it takes quite a long time until windows file selector opens (Probably in this time downloads.rdf is converted to downloads.sqlite - downloads.rdf file size is about 340K).
For every entry in downloads.rdf the error message "x:\...\file.zip could not be saved, because an unknown error occurred. Try saving to a different location." is displayed.
In error console there are several "Error: too much recursion" shown.
After clicking through all error messages the download manager window opens showing the file progress as finished/failed/canceled. 
But no file is really downloaded. 
The partition with the download directory would have enough space to save the files.

Expected Results:  
Import of downloads.rdf happens without error messages.

I tried to strip down downloads.rdf to reproduce the error with a smaller file. But unfortunately the error occurs only with the original file. Because a lot of private urls in the file I can't attach it to this bug. I will try to create a downloads.rdf that triggers this bug the next days.

Sorry for the bug spam, but bugzilla had a problem when I submitted bug 495680 :-(
