This issue affects me as well. Confirmed with Ubuntu 9.04 i386 Desktop live CD.
The Ubuntu Firefox Modifications needs to be cleaned up, in regards to what kind of dialog to open. I want to see this: What should Firefox do with this file? O Open with: [drop down list |v] O Save file [ ] Do this automatically from now on I almost always get this useless dialog: Would you like to save this file? [Cancel] [Save file] When I download a .exe, I can't get Firefox to use WINE or ask me what to do, no matter what I set in Preferences->Applications. It will always (unsuccessfully) open in Archive Manager (Ubuntu's default for .exe) Thanks! -- indicated application to open an attachment is ignored https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/237777 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
