That is a very good warning provided by the Download Statusbar extension. Something like that should been built into Firefox. I filed this Bug report a couple of years ago, about the lack of a warning like that. 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=480855 
I have looked everywhere that I can think of to find a list of '''IOfficeAntiVirus providers''' ''(as mentioned in the Bug report)'' that will work with Firefox, so I can't answer that for you.
You might want to ask the developer of the Download Statusbar extension about it. He might know which AV programs are compatible with the Windows API that Firefox uses for the download scan.

Download a file from the web

Helo,
I have to download a file from the web and copy it to the file system (ex: download from http://172.26.20.22/test.csv to \\server01\teste.csv).
I must do this using only pl/sql and java sources, I have to do this calling a procedure from pl/sql and the server doesn't have any component installed.
I've built a java procedure using java to download the file, but it give-me AccessControlException when trying to download.
Can anyone tel me what permissions I should have to accomplish this? Is there any other easier way?
Thanks.

Adobe 8 - Unexpected Corrupt or incorrect file type warning when viewing a PDF file from the Web

Hi,
On downloading a PDF file from my web site using Adobe 8 on the client machine I expect the file to open automatically however I receive encounter the "File Download" dialog. It has the following warning message: "The file you are downloading cannot be opened by the default program. It is either corrupted or it has an incorrect file type. As a security precaution, it is recommended that you cancel the download."
This issue did not occur within previously tested versions of Adobe Reader (e.g. Version 5.1).
On investigating the issue I discovered the factor that results in Adobe 8 failing to open the file automatically is the Content-Type = "application/pdf; Charset=utf-8". However, if I intercept the response and alter the Content-Type to contain only "application/pdf;" the issue on Adobe 8 does not occur.
I have even tested when the Content-Type contains an empty Charset (i.e. "application/pdf; Charset=") but this issue still occurs. In addition setting the Charset to other encodings (e.g. "ISO-LATIN-7", "iso-8859-1") the issue occurs.
QUESTION(s):
1. Why is it necessary for Adobe 8 when opening PDF files from the web to expect no Charset within the Content-Type?
2. If this was not an issue within previous versions of Adobe surly this is a bug?
Since I cannot ensure that the Response's Content-Type does not contain a Charset at all please can someone suggest either a work-around or more importantly a solution to the issue?
Please Note:-
1. Within Adobe, Edit -> Preferences -> Internet option it's compulsory for our users to have "Display PDF in browser" ticked!
2. We cannot prevent a Charset from being present within the Content-Type of the response sent to the client, hence this issue.
Many Thanks in advance,
Martin.

Bill,
This is exactly the same behavior I observed when I rendered a PDF stored in a database through a .NET page. If I chose to save it, it would open fine after the save, but if I chose to open it in the browser without saving it, I would get the error.
The problem was not with the PDF or Acrobat. It was with the way I was delivering the PDF. Putting the following code before my binarywrite fixed the issue completely:
Response.ClearHeaders()
Response.ClearContent()
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" + saveFilename)
where saveFileName is the name you want to give the PDF.
You can use 'inline' instead of 'attachment' above if you just want the PDF to open (no option to save first). You can also use 'pdf' instead of 'octet-stream' (not sure the difference).
The trouble seems to be that .NET puts some info in the header and/or content by default prior to anything your code says to write. If you don't clear this, IE has an issue with it. Other browsers seem to ignore it.
Bottomline is that this is an issue the website programmer needs to fix and is not something the user can fix by changing some setting(s).
I hope this helps.

Bug:Downloading pdf file from the web,file name in dialog box populates with incorrect file name

Hi Gurus
When downloading any pdf file from the web using adobe Reader X the file name dialog box populates with incorrect file name
compared to the saved file name of the document downloaded.
Clarity
1. Download any pdf file from the web
2. Click File, Save as note the populated File Name
3. Compare the populated file name with the saved file name of the documant yuo are downloading.
4. The file Name is incorrect...
Is there any work around on this issue?Can someone please help?..
OS:Windows7
Reader: Adobe Reader X
I've tried a couple of other versions and still get the same results...

Are you downloading the file (right-click, save link as), or just opening it by clicking it?
If the latter, then what happens is the file is loaded to the temporary internet files folder by IE and assigned a temporary name, which is then used when you're trying to save it.
You can test this out by going to File - Document Properties before trying to save and looking at the file's location.

How to download a file from the web

Say, a PDF.

Hi!
Your question is marked as a Firefox OS question which is Mozilla's own mobile operating system. Thanks for contacting Mozilla Support!
It seems that PDFs cannot be downloaded from the web at this moment, however there are apps from the marketplace you can download to open already downloaded PDFs available on your microSD card.

Everytime I go to get into Firefox the Windows Live Sign in comes up.This has been happening since I installed Windows 7 and it won't remember sign in details.How can I get rid of Windows Live sign in??

I am currently using Windows 7 and when I go to try and get Fire fox up a running the Window Live Sig in site comes up. This never happened when I was using Vista.
The Windows Live sign in site will not remember the sign in details.
I use My MSN/Sympatico home page as my default site

I can no longer open a blank new tab by clicking on the +on the far right of my tabs. And I cannot open a new tab using CTRL T either. This has been happening since your last firefox update!

Prior to one of recent upgrades in late September, I was able to open a new tab but using the + on the right unused tab. This does absolutely nothing now. I have even tried the CTRL T function and it does not work either.

This issue can be caused by the Ask.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)
Your system details show that toolbar in the user agent as AskTbGAM1/3.13.1.18107

When I download PDF's from the web all I get is a blank tab . I'm running OX 10.6.8 and using Firefox. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

PDF's used to open automatically now they don't open at all, could it be something that I said?

Thanks again Viking OSX, it's nice to know it's not just me. Once you put me on the trail I checked around and see that an incompatability issue between Firefox and Adobe has been going on for several months
http://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2012/05/04/adobe-reader-blocked-mac/
I guess my simplest solution is to use Safari for viewing PDF's untill adobe sort out the plug-in issue. Bit of a pain but not quite worlds end!
Just a thought, isn't OX10.8 supposed to be able to read PDF's by itself?

Downloading a file from the web

Hi,
I'm trying to implement an automatic update feature in one of my applications. This is done by downloading a jar from from my web server. I've written this method to download the file, but the file it downloads it says isn't a valid archive - so there's something wrong with my download method, but I don't know what. Any ideas on what's wrong with this method? Or any other ideas on how to download the file? I don't want to use FTP as I don't want to include my username / password in the application code.
    public static void getRemoteFile(String fileName) {
        try {
            FileWriter out = new FileWriter( "new.jar", true );
            URL url = new URL(fileName);
            URLConnection ex = url.openConnection();
            BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader( ex.getInputStream() ) );
            String inputLine = "";
            while ( ( inputLine = in.readLine() ) != null ) {
                out.write( inputLine );
            out.close();
            in.close();
        } catch( Exception e ) {
            // do nothing
    } // end the main method

Thanks for the replies. I created this method instead, but I keep getting this error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: URI scheme is not "file"
Any ideas what this means?
            File file = new File( new URI("http://www.mydomain.com/test.jar") );
            InputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file); // copy target
            OutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("new.jar"); // copy destination
            int nSize = fis.available();
            byte [] puffer = new byte[nSize];
            fis.read( puffer, 0, nSize );
            fos.write( puffer, 0, puffer.length );
            fis.close();
            fos.close();

Why I cannot see downloaded PDF files from the web?

I'm getting a message: "The file could not be opened. It may be demaged or use a file format that Preview (or PDF) doesn't recognize".
However my PDF is updated and it works with my older PDF files saved on my Mac.
Thanks for your help.

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste (command-V) into the text box that opens.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
I've seen an unconfirmed report that the "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you might need to remove it as well, if applicable.
Test. If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

When someone sends me a picture as a message it never appears in the messages, but the icon shows there is a message there. I just can't access it. This has been happening since the update.

So since I did the update on my phone, it rarely accepts picture messages. Usually the icon will show there is a message there (mine is up to 4 now), however it doesn't come through and I can't access it. I have tried a soft reset and simply restarting my phone, but it isn't working.

@chritina9,
Let's put an end to this mystery! Let find those picture messages.
Just so I'm clear, you do not receive picture messages at all? You see the message notification but when you check there is no message?
You mentioned this started after the software update. Try removing the SIM card and powering off the phone for a minute. Insert the SIM card and power the phone on. Test, by sending yourself a picture message and see if you receive it. Then have someone else send you a picture message and see if you receive it. Keep me posted.

Tooltip for a Tab (site name, alt text maybe?) often will show up after mouse leaves the tab and stay there until mouse hovers back on it. This has been happening since I used FF 3. Using 9.0.1 now and it still happens.

Screenshot.

Seems to be related to pages with flash.
White area near the Meteor Star tooltip in flash is where my mouse pointer actually is. Used far distance from the tab for emphasis on how broken this is.

'''Cor-el,
I think it's time to bring some of those kryptonian super powers of yours in to play! :)
Yes, I am still having problems. I tried to load in the online site for my bank, Navy Federal Credit Union. I got the old "server not found" BS. I did as you suggested and executed a SHIFTED Reload and that worked, at least in the since that I was able to get the opening page.
However, when I went to sign on, the trouble appeared. Similar to the failed logons and recycling sign ons that I had seen on Yahoo and a few other sites, WHEN I logged onto NFCU's page (they have an unusual three part logon), as soon as I sign on I am IMMEDIATELY told I have "timed out" on the session and am kicked off. Repeated attempts to access my account yields the same thing over and over. I tried to sign on using Internet Explorer and there was NO PROBLEM AT ALL, so the issue is specific to FF.
I then flushed the cache and retied; no luck. I tried SAFE MODE and again no luck. I then went in a flushed the cache, again, and deleted all associated cookies. Again no luck.
Then I flushed the cache, reset ALL the preferences and tried again, still no luck.
As it stands now, I have reset the USERAGENT entries, flushed the cache, reset the preferences and, removed the cookies and still, EVEN in SAFE mode, Firefox and NFCU can't get along. Neither can Yahoo.com!
So, after all that,I am at my wits end. Suggestions? Should I send you a refreshed copy of my troubleshooting dump?
Keep in mine that I have, up until 9.0.1 came out, been using FF to aces s all these sites without any problems. So I guess the question has to be: Exactly what was changed in 9.0.1 from the previous version that has made it act this way?
Ideas? Suggestions? Fixing this has become a full time job!

Most, but not all, website no longer display as HTML. This has been happening since I downloaded the latest version of Firefox.

The websites are accessible but do not display as HTML. Mirriam-Webster is one such site, but there are many others. However, this Firefox site and my google mail site, as well as some others, display fine.
I've pasted in an example of a website that will not display properly on Firefox but displays just fine on Internet Explorer.

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
* Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
* Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

When I open Mozilla it says netwok error, error occurred contacting the DNS server. I can get into bookmarks and into the programs that I saved. This has been happening since July 22nd. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's all I can tell you because that is all it says.

Did you find a solution?
Same problem over here as well, FF 7 is ok but FF8 / FF9 and Thunderbird 8 / 9 crash on startup.
They both work if I start them in safe mode with everything enabled.
