Just upgraded to the latest version of Firefox in the ubuntu repositories this

I've got another problem with replacing files that you've already downloaded.
When I download files from sourceforge a second time, the auto-renaming feature
gives the downloaded file a wierd name. For example, if you download
javaapp-1.0.jar, the 1.0 usually refers to the version number of the javaapp
jar. However, if you download this file a 2nd time, firefox is renaming the
file to javaapp-2.0.jar. This is really a bad renaming scheme for me as I end
up downloading a lot of jar files and rely on the jar filename to know the
version of the jar. Here is a link you can download from once, wait for it to
complete downloading, then download a 2nd time to see the new filename:
