    Firefox Download issues

    It seems Firefox has decided to not let me download anything. I right click and save as but once its done the Open file and Open containing folder options are grayed out. As if the file isn't there anymore.

    My computer has plenty of space left and I've tried clearing the download history but all to no avail. Anyone have any ideas?

    go to tools > options. make sure "always ask me where to save files" is highlighted. were you always saving to a location that is no longer accessible?

    No i always had it ask me. But i figured it out. Dumb ass ESET decided that since my free trial ran out it wasn't going to let me download anything to keep me safe from myself i guess. All better now tho.

    wait, did I get this right o.O your antivirus software started blocking your Firefox options regarding downloading after the trial period expired o.O?
    It literally prevented the normal operation of your non-related software?
