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.
