Still doesn't like my Firefox 3.6. It also doesn't give me a
choice as it insists on Dell's download manager, which is
the root of my problem. I'm just going to use IE from now on.

for the dell download manager to work with firefox you need v2.01 or
higher plus you need .net 3.5 sp1 and .net assistant 1.1.

Pen, Have you loaded a third party Download manager plug-in?
If you have then it might be that plug-in.

No, see my post above. It was the lack of .net assistant 1.1
which was a real pain to install as in required 4 service
