Even if I download a small file which has a size of about 10kb, the download progress bar shows unknown time remaining and apparently the download is not complete. Although the downloaded file works fine. This creates a little distraction as now the browser tab in my windows is highlighted as if it is downloading.

Now I have got a few dozen download progress bar since yesterday and it is pretty distracting. Can anyone please help me ? I have already trying resetting the browser, it does not help as the download progress bar return s to the same status.

Gekose oplossing

hello, this is a bug in the latest 32 beta 9 version which will be addressed in the release candidate 1 build which should be deployed via auto-updates to beta users later today.

a workaround for the moment would be to enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up), right-click somewhere on the page and create a new string setting with the name browser.safebrowsing.appRepURL and value https://sb-ssl.google.com/safebrowsing/clientreport/download?key=%GOOGLE_API_KEY%

for reference see bug #1057764
