When saving a file, if you change the default name, to anything else, Mozilla
hangs. For example, downloading the file "opera-701en.exe", renaming it to
"test-opera-701en.exe" or "opera-foobar-701en.exe" hangs Mozilla. Note that it
saves correctly if the file name is unchanged.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find a file to download, doesn't matter where (download.com is good, or even
Mozilla.org)
2. Click on the file to save it.
3. Rename the file, by adding something to it, doesn't matter where-the front of
the file name is a good place 
4. Click "save".
5. Mozilla hangs. End the process to get out of it.

Actual Results:  
Mozilla hangs, and seems to process forever. Ending the task/process fixes this.

Expected Results:  
Saved the renamed file.

Reporter:
Can you try this : Close mozilla and delete the file "xul.mfl" in your mozilla
user profile ?
Removing xul.mfl from the user profile directory seems to have fixed this. Thanks.
Thanks for your response
