Build ID: 20130308042013

Steps to reproduce:

Went to https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setix/0.8.1 and clicked on  setix-0.8.1.tar.gz under Downloads (http://d.stufft.io/image/2D2E073G2Z01) a dialog box will poped up asking if I wanted to Save file or Cancel (http://d.stufft.io/image/2E3Q2X0g2X05) and I clicked Cancel.


Actual results:

The file 'wl1OV9p2.exe.part' was left over in my Downloads folder.


Expected results:

The file 'wl1OV9p2.exe.part' should have been cleaned up by Firefox when the download was canceled.

Attachment: .part file that firefox is leaving behind.

I can reproduce this. I get a slightly more sane file name <random>.gz.part I've attached it for reference.

It looks OSX-specific.

This sounds like a duplicate of bug 420355, but I am not familiar with Mac OS.

I'm also having this same issue - FF21.0, OSX 10.8.3.
