[Solved] Firefox question (xml)

How can I set this file so that firefox downloads everything without confirmation to my downloads folder…Evertime I download whatever file (doc, rar, zip, png..you name it) it firefox asks me what to do with it…especially after installing down them all it doesn’t even remember when i set ff to do this action always for this file type…I want firefox to download everything including filetypes unknown to ff without asking me anything..It nags the hell out of me …here’s the xml file
I don’t want to use external handlers or down them all. Can I do this with a couple of lines adding in the xml. Or do I have to add a rule for each file type?

Answer #1
what happens if you just delete all the associations(the above txt) and set a default D/L directory
Answer #2
I tried it..Doesn’t work
Answer #3
I would like to know this too cause it pisses me off that it asks everytime >_<
Answer #4
Exacly,,,it’s utterly irritating…I would like to say to firefox shut up and just download.!!!
Answer #5
Okay, here’s what pops to my mind. Enter about:config in the address bar hit enter. Locate browser.download.useDownloadDir, set it to true. Try to download a rar file for example. Does it help ?
Mimetypes looks good since
NC:alwaysAsk="false"
NC:saveToDisk="true"
is what you need to have between RDF tags.
Answer #6
Hi , tnx for your reply..browser.download.useDownloadDir was allready set true. Rar files it doesn’t have an issue with but some files it keeps asking..I was wondering if ff can be set to be silent all the time. Even when i dowload a filetype that is unknown to ff.
Answer #7
I guess you have to add those two lines for each mime type. I will see if I can find to set a way to include universal commands in the file but I don’t think I will be able to.
Answer #8
Ok, tnx for helping. I guess I have to ignore the nuisance for now.
Answer #9
Ok, I found a solution. Install downThemAll. Install Flashgot…And suddenly it stops for asking confirmation…Pffffffff what a nuisance that is…I like Firefox very much but this bug is killing me. After numerous years this bug still isn’t fixed….I read other complaints on the net so I’m certainly not the only one..I’ll send Mozilla an email.
