Problem with saving downloading option
When downloading a file of any type, the "do this automatically for files like this from now on" option is grayed out and i cant click it. I ran Firefox in Safe-mode and deleted my preferences but it didn't fix the problem.
Firefox version 3.6

You can only set an automatic download (Open with) action if a server sends the file with a supported MIME type.

I'm having the same problem trying to download icons (.ico). Is this an unsupported MIME type? The Open With dialog box tells me that it is an ICO image, so I know that it knows what type of file it's trying to open.
I have finally found a solution! Just download this addon named mime_edit-0.601004242000.xpi and add your MIME types. http://space.geocities.yahoo.co.jp/gl/alice0775/view/20080912/1221150790 This one is compatible with Firefox 4
