Description

[Miguel]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100625 Firefox/3.6.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100625 Firefox/3.6.6

If I decide to create a new folder first when I download a file, Firefox stops working and no directory is created. The program stops responding and needs to be closed using Task Manager - using Firefox 3.6.6.  



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Download a jpg, it opens in a new tab, 
2.right click the image and select Save Image As
3.Press on Create New Folder 
Actual Results:  
It happens every time I tried the above.  The only way around it is to create a directory using Windows and then save the downloaded files into that directory

Expected Results:  
a directory should be created, and then the downloaded file can be saved into it.
