Automatically clear the a download off the downloads list after every successful download
Authored by: ko on Mar 18, '07 11:01:47PM

There's a way to automatically clear the download list every time. I set this up on every firefox install that I do because I find it so useful.

My current version is 2.0.0.2 so these instructions relate to that version. It's similar in other versions 1.5+ but named slightly differently.

In preferences, under the privacy tab, there is a checkbox for "Remember what I've downloaded". Uncheck that and the download box clears every successful download after they've finished. Since I found that, I've never had a problem with Firefox taking a long time before starting downloads.
