Table of Contents 1 Download actions 2 Changing download actions 3 Adding download actions 4 Resetting download actions for all content types. Note: Firefox will not be able to properly handle a file download if a misconfigured web server sends it with an incorrect Content type. For example, Firefox may display the content as plain text instead of opening the file in an application or asking you what to do.
You can contact the website in such cases or you can try a Firefox add-on such as Content-Type Fixer to work around the problem. And my answer answers the question at hand. If you have some special case that aren't explicitly stated in your question, there is no reason to expect an answer to this question will treat this unknown special case. And even with this special case in mind, the only "professional" way of handling it is the one exposed in this answer.
Don't know where you saw , even the unminifed one is just KB — Kaiido. Ok, the zip of a lib I downlaoded had that size, but yes, I didn't take a look at the content, so thanks for pointing that out. I will accept the second part of the answer if you remove the wrong allegation : — David. David there is no allegation here, that's just the name of what you describe.

They look like they are downloading all the way,but the file does not show up where I asked to save it,or when I ask to run it from current location. I am running WinXP with all the updates and service packs on a emachines m I have done avg and avast virus scans and have zone alarm firewall. Nothing has fixed this problem. It seems as though there may be a file or dll missing.
I do not get any errors. I just cannot download anything. So, you have to confirm that this is not an add-on issue. Fortunately, performing this troubleshooting process is easy in Firefox. Almost every Windows application creates temporary files that become useless over time. These files can become corrupt and start causing different problems. Try clearing them out and see if the download error will disappear for good.
Firefox might be unable to download the file because one or more sectors on your hard disk are faulty. You can run a more thorough scan in the elevated Command Prompt environment. These steps will walk you through the process:. If the message below shows up, then the volume you are trying to scan is currently busy. Tap the Y key if the Command Prompt asks you to schedule the scan for your next reboot:.
