Thanks for the response Duncan,

I *am* able to download using the CLI and had always been able to DL 
with FF until this install.
Later I found that I was getting similar errors from several choices in 
FF's dropdown menus.
All I could think was that Firefox was somehow corrupted.
I installed 1.0.4 and things were normal again.
I'd just like to understand what went wrong with the original FF
