I tried to download the firefox upgrade(Version 8.0.1) but the Downloads section box showed that the file was a Binary File (-1 bytes). (ref: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/products/download.html?product=firefox-8.0.1&os=win&lang=en-US)

This error was seen when I tried to download a torrent file from http://eztv.it and http://thepiratebay.org as well; the Downloads section box showed TORRENT FILE (-1 bytes), thereby rendering it invalid. I have tried clearing my firefox cache but the problem still persist. Thanks for your help!

Firefox can report a filesize of -1 if there is a problem with the Content-Length headers. I remember that there is a bug filed for this, to turn it into a decent message, but I can not find it right now.
