Using FlashGot with Firefox's internal downloader. File is an mp3 file through a link. Saving file using downloader alone works fine -> filename.mp3. Using FlashGot on the same link results in file being downloaded as download.aspx. What am I doing wrong?

Probably nothing. Can I see the actual page where this happens and the link to test?

It's a link embedded in an email.

Just some logs (I didn't get anything to download via download manager, & then after that the link seem ineffectual?):

The problem is the redirection URL, http:/www.hearitfirst.com/1clickdownloads/dow ... id=1041245, being syntactically invalid (notice the single slash after "http:"): while the redirecting server builds a valid redirection anyway, FlashGot generic redirector processor refuses to parse the invalid URL.

I'll make next version more forgiving, accepting this kind of broken URLs as well.
