I realized that Firefox 1.0 download manager often completes abruptly declaring the file download as completed, even when only a portion of the file is downloaded. This is very frequent in slow connections. At this point there is also no facility to re-download the file or better yet recover from the failed download.

Introduction After 4 hours of struggling with the abomination named Mambo documentation (I wouldn't grace it with a link) I have to conclude that it is a pure-bred torture device. Please read their documentation to get a taste of horror if you are seriously masochistic.

I have seen references in web-pages requesting visitors to show their appreciation or help by clicking on the advertiser's link. Such desperate methods are of questionable ethics as it provides unwanted clicks for the advertisers, who pays for them. On the other hand they help the site owner in the short term, undermining the cpc model in the long term. And I am sure people who would be otherwise unwilling to donate would love to spread some of the click-love, as it makes them feel good for accessing the services of the site without paying a penny. With Firefox way of tabbed browsing, you don't even have to view the ad contents! However it cannot work in the long run.
