FlashGot & Firefox 3.6 recovery issues

[Ssurgul]

I realize this was my fault entirely, but I can't get my browser back and I am in desperate need of help here.

I am running Firefox 3.6 and the latest FlashGot in Windows7 64bit on a Core2Duo 3GHz with 8GB of RAM. I wanted to locally archive an image archive with ~100K images. I told FlashGot to do its work, and left the computer overnight 2 nights ago. Unfortunately, the browser failed during the night during the download. Now, every time I restart the browser, it attempts to restart that process. I had seen the browser report that there were over 20K pending downloads, and I have seen it taking up more than 1GB of active RAM and even more paged RAM. I have tried to restart the browser in safe-mode, disabling all add-ons, removing the page that started this. No matter what I do, though, FlashGot takes the browser session and tries to resume this. I just want my browser back here.

Is there a way to disable/turn off this download command in the system's ini/conf files somewhere?

Is there somewhere I can limit the number of concurrent downloads so this doesn't happen again?

Open your browser profile and delete the "downloads.sqlite" file.

Yes, use a proper external download manager.
