i use foxit reader open a pdf file, the final url name is xxxx.pdf, when i click the save or save as i get some strings as the fileneme for example, 529EDd01.pdf. the same as the name in the cache folder. So i think , first the pdf file xxxx.pdf is saved in cache , changed name as 529EDd01, then the foxit reader open it. then the name could never the same as the url name xxx.pdf. 

  i wonder could i change the saving name in cache automatically or

is there another way to solve this problem, (mimetype do not work). (for the firefox browser is closed the cache would been deleted, so security is not considered much). Thanks for your attention. thanks very much for trying to solve the problem, for it bothering me too much.

I do not use foxit reader but most things allow you to choose or edit a filename when saving a file. If you download and save a file with Firefox you should get the opportunity to name the file.

If necessary

  1. disable foxit reader (Tools -> Add-ons)
  2. then navigate to the .pdf
    and Firefox should then have nothing suitable to open the file with and so will offer to save the file.

You appear to be using an insecure and outdated Firefox 7, you should update to Firefox 12, and also check and update plugins and add-ons.

The latest versions of Ffirerox will open .pdf files but you are still able to download and save them see
