Guys, I need urgent help with this issue I'm facin' in My Firefox. Its Version 2.0.0.11 The problem is that whenever I try to download an image by right-clicking it and selecting "Save Image As"
option, nothing happens. Whilst downloading any other file from site like rapidshare etc. nothing is shown in the download window but file at destination is present. I'm using following Add-Ons
  1. Download Status Bar 0.9.5.3
  2. Pic Lens 1.6.0.824
  3. Real Player Browser Record Plugin 1.0
  4. StumbleUpon 3.16
  5. Torrent Finder Toolbar 1.2.3
I even un-installed the browser , rebooted my machine and re-installed it but no avail. HELP!!!:(

Try deleting your Firefox profiles:

1) Go to run: firefox.exe -profilemanager
2) Delete every profile and create a new profile.
3) Close the window and start Firefox.
4) Now check wether you can save images or not......

Lemme correct u Unknown, its Ctrl+J. No theres is no error. Save as Image command works, it opens destination folder but after clicking on Save nothing happens. Download StatusBar shows no activity neither does the inbuilt Downloads window. Its like if Downloading has been banned...:mad:

I was just checking the error console so found these errors so I think these are the causes. verify if thats the case and provide solution

Error: not well-formed
Source File: file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Rudra%20Pratap/Application%20Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/1diu8w3q.default/downloads.rdf
Line: 1, Column: 1
Source Code:

Error: [Exception... "ServiceManager::GetService returned failure code:" nsresult: "0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://downbar/content/downbaroverlay.js :: downbarInit :: line 65" data: no]
Source File: chrome://downbar/content/downbaroverlay.js
Line: 65

Error: db_gDownloadManager has no properties
Source File: chrome://downbar/content/downbaroverlay.js
Line: 1657


These are recurrently poppin' in the error console I think this is definitely the problem. As it says Download Manager has no properties set so how to correct it???:confused:

I had looked at your error report and it will be only rectified when you delete that profile and create a new profile.

Firefox Profile Manager should definitely open.

One more thing........All the firefox windows should be close if you want to open the Profile Manager. I mean it should not be running in the background. Otherwise, a new Firefox window will get opened.

Now try opening the Profile Manager again. Its like this:
