Comment #3 on issue 26806 by [email protected]: Download Confirmation is
redundant
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=26806
We allow sites to initiate downloads un-prompted. These downloads can have
potentially
enticing names, such as "iTunes Setup.(dmg|exe)", so that when you later
search for
them and click on them you think "Of course I downloaded this from the
internet" and
blow right past the part that shows you where you downloaded it from, if
that part
exists on your OS. The main reason this prompt exists is because of these
un-user-
initiated downloads of potentially dangerous files.
This has been marked fix-it for a while, as Issue 9044
