Sorry, Wolfi, I *don't* understand why you are having problems.
For me a download (let's say of a .zip file) __WORKS__ all these ways:
- single_click on link
- shift, then click on link
- RMB on link, then choose "Save Link As..."
(but *did* have to re-enter the destination directory)
- RMB on link, choose "Copy Link URL", then paste into Navigation
Bar field of Mozilla and press <enter>
[I normally fetch .wpi files with a stand-alone FTP program.
But I can download them fine in Mozilla with 'shift, then click'.]
