Ultra-weird:  in Safari it downloads the file correctly, but in Firefox 
3.5.3 on OS X 10.5.8 it went to the URL I noted.

So I updated FF to v3.5.4, and after doing so it warned me that I needed 
to also update Flash Player, so I did.  Then I updated the five FF 
extensions I normally run with, then disabled all of them, restarted FF, 
and it still brings me to that other URL.

If it were forwarding me to some spam site I might suspect a virus, but 
the site it goes to is rather innocuous, so I'm not so sure.  Also, the 
behavior persists even after updating FF and disabling extensions, so 
I'm disinclined to think it's a modified FF or FF prefs/settings issue.

Still, since it works in Safari obviously this issue is specific to 
something in my FF setup.  But what?

Anyone else here see this behavior?
