problem with firefox and downloads?
Today (April 8, 2011) when I tried to download a file (.zip) firefox froze. When firefox got to the download window (i.e where you choose to save the file onto you computer) it froze. It wouldn't save the file, nor would it let me close the download window and cancel the download. This has happen twice this year. I had to force quit the program. I am on the latest version of Mac OS X and firefox 3.6.16.

Usually when my firefox hangs I get the apple spinning pinwheel, I did not get it. I could still open minimized pages but they would show behind the download window and couldn't be closed or minimized. When I pressed save (and closed) on the download window nothing happened. I have the option set to not remember the download history.
