When I try to download and install a program, using Mozilla.org, or Netscape for
that matter, the file has ".dwg" added on after the ".exe". The file icon is the
apple with a bite out of it wihin a box, and the program that is matched to it
is a graphics viewer. Trying to run the program results in a screen saying that
the file is not the correct type to be opened by that program. Since the file is
listed on the download site as an exe file, it must follow that the .dwg is
being added at my end. I can download with IE with no problem.

Possibly a dup of bug 65827. If you would supply a URL where you were seeing
this problem, that would help.

Please delete the association between application/octet-stream and .dwg in your
helper app preferences.
