Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open URL 2. Look at default filename for download Actual Results: Got .tar.gz.tar Expected Results: Suggest .tar.gz
Unfortunately, we have to change the filename in some cases to avoid some security bugs in the Windows operating system, and we're a little over-zealous about it... Bug 65827 will likely not help this case, but it may. If it does not, this case is a duplicate of the "do not change extensions when saving" bug, somewhere in the "file handling" component.

Allrighty then... I switched to regular zip for now, so don't expect the demo URL to work any longer.
