Mozilla 2000111708, Mac OS 9.0.4 - 1) Try to load some type of unsupported file Results: The file will not load and a "garbage" (see bug 60203) file will be created in your downloads directory. (I have the QT plugin installed but it's not working. Trying to load different files (MIDI, PICT) that are supported by QT fails, and these garbage files are created. These files do not get deleted, even after you quit Mozilla.)
is that thru plugins? ->av

This problem will probably be solved by the resolutions to bug 55690 and bug 60203 - the salted filename is not as big a problem as these are truly temporary files, but they should be deleted upon exiting Mozilla (probably need a new bug for that). Leaving open for now, but reducing severity.
Severity: critical → normal
This sounds JUST like bug 60203. Marking DUP, re-open if you disagree. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 60203 ***
