In the previous versions of firefox, I could stop my downloads in the middle, shut down my computer, restart and continue my downloads from that point on... but that doesnt seem to be the case with 3.6... I have to restart my downloads from the very beginning ... can you help me with this problem?

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== as soon as i installed 3.6

You can pause downloads, then resume them later, this should work even after closing Firefox.

Does it help if you remember Downloads: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: "Remember download history" ?

Also make sure that you do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the download history
