Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox
When downloading a PDF file (Portable document format) to a partition which
uses the NTFS-Filesystem, the downloaded file will be renamed to name.pdf.bin
I tried different filesystems and different file types and different servers.
But it only occures with PDFs on NTFS-Systems.
Well I just did another few tests. Sometimes downloading the file will
create a 0-byte-file. This occured on NTFS, never on ext3 / reiserFS.
Using "Save as" will not create these files.
However, the bottom part of this message is a duplicate of bug 88739.
