I tried Downloading EXE files on Firefox4 and most of the times even when the Exe is downloaded completely, firefox4 reports issue in download and saves the Exe file as <filename>.exe.part in the default "Downloads" folder.

This is happening from almost all the websites on both my laptop (win7) and Desktop (Win7).

Appreciate if this issue is fixed by firefox.
