User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:1.2.1; MultiZilla v1.1.32 final) Gecko/20021130 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:1.2.1; MultiZilla v1.1.32 final) Gecko/20021130 Downloading a file in a specific directory using "Save As" works fine, but if I just click on a link to a file and then specify a directory to save the file in, Mozilla will first save this file in the temporary directory and then move it to the specified one. If the temporary dir and the chosen one are placed on different partitions this behaviour may result in download errors because of lack of disk space on the temp-dir partition. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Expected Results: 1. Mozilla should check available disk space before starting a download. 2. Mozilla should save a file directly in the specified directory.
