Seamonkey Download Dialog

It has happened a couple times where I lost the ability to see the download dialog. I recreated my profile and that fixed the problem. The easier was seems to be remove the downloads.rdf file in the profile directory that is causing the problem. For example,

cd ~/.mozilla/Default/a737728.slt
rm downloads.rdf

I've only see this a couple times.

Files set to read only when Opened

There was a change put in 2008 that would cause files opened through email or from a web page to have the read-only permissions set. I understand the logic, but sometime you just need to move the data around before printing. Adding the following new key in about:config will create the file with write access. Note: files are created in the /tmp directory and may not be retained, so if you want a copy be sure to use the Save As option of the app you are viewing it with.

In browser URL Enter: about:config
Add new boolean key:  browser.helperApps.deleteTempFileOnExit to false
