If you try to download a file with a really long path to the file, the
downloading window is elongated to accomidate.  The problem is it pushes the
'OK' button of the side of the screen and you cannot hit return to close the
downloading window.  For the URL I listed, click on MacBinary to see the issue.
 Yes you can just click and drag the downloading window over and then click
'OK', but it is annoying.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. http://asu.info.apple.com/swupdates.nsf/artnum/n11916
2. click on MacBinary
3. see issue
4. This appears to be an issue with ANY download with a long path.

Expected Results:  Word wrap the URL/path to file so the downloading window does
not get too long
