User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a) Gecko/20040518 Firefox/0.8.0+ Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a) Gecko/20040518 Firefox/0.8.0+ I have firefox set to automatically download to the desktop. If I download the same file twice, it will download them both, renaming the second one. When the filename has dashes and periods, sometimes it renames in a confusing way (whether there is/should be an option to prompt instead of rename is another matter). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Try downloading the file in the example URL multiple times. Actual Results: For me, the first file is named (correctly) javacc-3.2.zip. The second is named javacc-4.2.zip, the third javacc-5.2.zip. Expected Results: It would make more sense for the files to be reneamed javacc-3.2(1).zip, etc, but even that would conflict with files whose names end with (x). At least it should only change the last numeral in the filename.
