> Could you explain how this violates privacy issues?
The privacy issue lies in two points. a) the question if I am master of my choices appropriately (I like to be that!) This is maybe a minor philosophical question, but I guess the mayority of users sees the point of download choice in clicking after the destination input. At that point Moz has already committed action in my place. b) related to a) we have to walk from the assumption that a user has a fixed IP address that might make him identifiable at a particular download site. Under this circumstance it is not tolerable that Moz causes action before the user is finally decided to commit. In some extreme cases (and further depending whether Moz supports automatic login at such downloads) this action could result even in financial losses. I admit this is a minor issue, but not totally irrelevant. After all, is this intricate function not in truth an issue of developers' pride? "See what we have accomplished!" Has ever any (non-developing) user asked for it? If you smartly keep the recent download directories in a choice field accross sessions, it will be only seconds lost in 99% of all download cases. As a straightforward user I would happily go without such a detail if I gained control over proper useage of my disk-drive spaces. A lost "half" download is certainly the most annyoing alternative! > I doubt that people will appreciate Mozilla using all their available memory. But you think that people will appreciate being forced to use the TEMP drivespace, and in myriads of cases out there shake their heads as (as a consequence) they are not able to download at all? - Wolf
