Wrong time estimate when downloading with pulsed downloads
When downloading from fileservers (using 'free' download) with some servers the displayed download time estimate is horribly wrong. This seems to stem from their method of 'pulsed' fast packets download with long pauses between the packets. It would be nice if this issue could be corrected in next versions (if possible at all). It is very annoying.

Contact 'free' download about that - not a Firefox support issue if you're using an external download manager with Firefox.
I am not using a download manager but pure firefox as itself.
If the estimate time doesn't get corrected by Firefox over time if the server sends the file as separate chunks that aren't arriving constantly but at irregular intervals then there is probably not much that you can do other then being patient.
