It doesn't freeze for me... When I go to this URL: ftp://speakeasy.rpmfind.net/linux/Mandrake-devel/contrib/RPMS/fluxbox-0.1.12-3mdk.i586.rpm I get a black screen but nothing freezes. One workaround is to go into mozilla's preferences. Under Navigator go to Helper Applications. Click new type. For the file extension enter .rpm For the MIME type enter application/x-rpm Then hit okay. Do not choose an application. Now Mozilla will prompt you what to do with the file. If you want it to automatically jump to saving it to disk. After you've added it then click edit and you'll be able to mark it as save to disk...
