Just can't save my e-mail attachments in the proper way like the previous version

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.just try to save an attachment within a mailbox. actually I've tested within my yahoo so far
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
every time I try to save any attachment within my e-mail inbox I hit the wall. it's really a pain in the neck. it tries to save a file in the name of something like "securedownload" with no extension and for the pic or video files it gets even worse and file name just shows something nonsense. Sometimes clicking on the attachment would cause the save file dialogue box to open without the file first being scanned by yahoo for the viruses .

Expected Results:  
a save dialogue box showing me the correct information about the file I'm saving and needs me to confirm the action

show a save dialogue box showing me the correct information about the file I'm saving and needs me to confirm the action

I wonder how such a thing which been doing all right in the previous version is know malfunctioning. By the way thanks a lot for the great free product

Which of the Yahoo interfaces are you using:
- Classic
- Normal
