So yo you have a record of this download in Download Manager (CTRL+J)?
If so, what does the progress field say? If Finish, right-click on entry
and select Open containing folder. If the entry is greyed out, disabled,
then the physical file has either been moved or deleted since
downloaded. Dead simple here...
As I mentioned elsewhere in this thread, Jonathan, NO, there is no
mention of it in the Download Manager, it doesn't even start the
Download Manager .... just my Win7 Dialer screen is indicating there is
lots happened each time I click on the "Save File" button.
Well I would say if you witness "a lot of activity on my Wireless
Broadband Dialler screen" but there is no entry in Download Manager that
what you may be seeing is just a continuously failing negotiation just
to initialize the download process, but it never succeeds. That would
explain why you get no "Save file to:" screen, nor entry in Download
Manager, nor any evidence of the file on your hard drive. So what might
cause this scenario? Do you have some third-party download manager
either external to SeaMonkey or as a plugin? Do you have so Internet
"Security" software that runs downloads though a proxy?
Have you tried downloading after launching SeaMonkey with the -safe-mode
option? What happens if you use a different browser to determine if the
problem is with SeaMonkey or external to SeaMonkey? Such test may help
pin down your issue.
Good suggestion, Jonathan, I hadn't thought about disabling Extensions
to exclude them from causing trouble .... however, it seems to have made
things worse, as I didn't even get the little "save File"/"Cancel"
window, however I could still see heaps of activity in my Wireless
Broadband Dialler screen!
I took SM Off-line to stop the download. I'm hoping SM doesn't try to
resume the d/l session!
