Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
Choose File -> Save Page As... from Firefox 3 (Ubuntu Hardy Heron) and nothing happens.
Click on a link to a file and no save dialog pops up.
I can't download files from my course website.
I was using the Human-Murrine theme, but switched back to the default Human theme and rebooted and still the same problem.
The save dialog does appear in other applications like OpenOffice.
I am downloading the Epiphany web browser now to see if it works instead.
Or else will downgrade back to Firefox 2.

It may have been corrupted preferences or something. I changed the preferences for firefox downloads to something else and saved and then changed the preferences back again and it started working again.
