I accident clicked delete download when from my downloads list in firefox and I can't find it anywhere on my computer? Does anyone now how I restore this file to save the time having to re download it? I am using Ubuntu.

There are applications such as testdisk and photorec but it would be a lot faster to download the file again.

If that's the case, then it is somewhat ridiculous, a file shouldn't be wiped but rather sent to the trash can, especially if its a large download.
