Double count

closing due to new maintainer and an unsupported version. A new 6.x-2.x version is forthcoming, please open new issues against that version when available if necessary.

This problem still exists in 6.x-2.0.
If I right click the file and save as, in FF, it counts as 2 downloads.
Any news on this?

Regards

I do all my development with ff, and I've never been able to duplicate this. My guess is it might be related to an add-on like #1293274: problem with pdf and zip download count in firefox and ie. Not sure there's anything I can do about it, but at the very least i would need to be able to reproduce it.

I have standard installation of FF; only add-on is Firebug, as it is a lot of help when themeing.

Have you tried with larger files, 500Kb and plus?
I understand that it will be dificult for you to do anything if this is some kind of FF behaviour when it comes to handling downloads.
But I'd like to be sure of it.

I just tried it with a 7.5 mb file and it doesn't happen. if it seems to be related to file size you might want to double check that you'd don't use some sort of download manager.

Not much I can do to provide further information, I'm afraid.
I'll give it some more testing and get back to this issue, if I find anything else.
Thanks for your help, anyway.

i'm working on adding some flood control-- in theory, it should be able to prevent this as well. I'll update the thread when I figure out the flood control api and commit it.
