Hi, In the options menu in the setting "choose how Firefox handles the files you download...." how can I add a content type? I have a content type extention for .cbz file. I'd like to add .cbr file to the list. I download many of these and am always prompted to "open or save file". It gets tiring. Is there a way I can add suggested files to save? thank you

You can only create a new file download action via the 'open with' (save) dialog when the server sends a valid MIME type. If this item is disabled then the server likely send a generic content type like "application/octet-stream" or uses a content disposition header.
