Basically, it copies the file to a temporary location and then runs that. Mozilla should check to see if the file is already located locally and then execute it. A sort of three step "Is it a local file? Make it local. Run the local file." would work nicely. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Navigate to a folder on a local drive 2. Find a file, such as a program 3. Double click it Actual Results: Mozilla opens the download manager, copies the file to a temporary location, and executes the copy. Expected Results: Just execute the original local copy I can only logically mark this as "Trivial" for severity, but I would like to note that this uses up unneeded harddrive space and time, as well as being annoying.
