I'm running FF 3.06.16 in Win XP. For several months, every time I try to download a program, the downloads window reports the download was cancelled. How do I correct this?
I've installed a few recommended add-ons, but haven't seen a correlation to the download failures. Program downloads fail almost every time I attempt them. Don't know if this is associated, but pdf screens are often blank.

Go to Windows Control Panel | Java | Update
After you update to the current version which is 1.6.0_24, go to Tools | Add-ons | Extensions and disable version 1.6.0_20. Next, go to Add/Remove Programs and uninstall Java 1.6.0_20. Older versions of Java pose a security risk to your system.
Then go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ to update Flash.
If the problem persists, please do the following:
In the location bar at the top, type about:config and hit Enter.
In the filter at the top, copy/paste the following setting: browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone
Then double click it to change the setting from True to False.
Then close Firefox via File | Exit and restart it again.
Finally, go download a file again, right click it and choose "Open Containing Folder". Should be in the folder it was downloaded to.
