In ff2, you could right click on the link, say "save target as", and then it would start downloading to 1 file - you could click on it and view it - no problems. But in 3 - all data is written to these stupid ".part" files - you can view these also, but if they're still open when the download finishes, ff gives you an error and tells you that you need to re-download. Is there ANY possible way to get rid of these .part files and have ff save to just 1 file? Link to comment
