This happened to me today.  Using FF 3.0, I downloaded a .tgz file *but* 
firefox gunzip'd it after the download but did not rename the file.

$ tar tzf <filename>.tgz  gave errors
$ tar tf <filename>.tgz listed the file in the tar archive!

Strange thing is I downloaded other files with .bz2 compression but FF  
left them as is i.e. in compressed format.

The OP must have gone through this strange experience as well.
