hi fellas. simple problem, so hopefully a simple solution. i have a default download directory, so everytime i download a file, which is a lot, ff doesnt ask me "where to?" save it. ok. so now, the problem is, sometimes i may download the same file with the same size again. it happens. at this time, i dont want the download to happen with a rename automatically, like kittens.(1).mp3 when i already have a files named kittens.mp3. you understand what i am getting at i hope. i want it to ASK me ONLY WHEN THE FILE NAME IS THE SAME IN THE DEFAULT DESTINATION FOLDER. PLEASE, be kind and help!

This only happens if you let Firefox download and save the file automatically, so make sure to select that option.
