User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:20.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/20.0
Build ID: 20130409194949

Steps to reproduce:

I download a web page by using the save page as.


Actual results:

The download doesn't complete it shows as failed. I have to go to the
show all downloads to click on the failed download. It then downloads and clears the failed download indication.  I never had this problem until the new download feature was implemented. I never had any failed downloads.


Expected results:

The web page should have been downloaded without any user intervention.

This problem is still occurring with the new updated version Firefox 21. It
Happens maybe 1 out of 50 downloads. Thanks Dave
