Firefox doesn't set CurrentDirectory at start of files from the Download-list.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682425.aspx

lpCurrentDirectory [in, optional]

    The full path to the current directory for the process. The string can also specify a UNC path.

    If this parameter is NULL, the new process will have the same current drive and directory as the calling process. (This feature is provided primarily for shells that need to start an application and specify its initial drive and working directory.)


At start of a file from the list of lpCurrentDirectory = "x:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\".

If the user works with the rights of the Administrator it will lead to change of contents of a folder of the Firefox.

Reproducible: Always
