I've been seeing a very weird 'bug' for a few releases now, and thought
this might help anyone else having a similar issue with Mozilla.

Indeed I have seen this problem as long as I can remember in OSX.

Open a window and browse to a download (such as Version Tracker), then
commence a longish download. I always use the standard download dialog
rather than the manager.

Close the main window and then try to open a new one, you can't. In fact
you can't even access any menu items at all.

Initially I found you had to close the download, or wait until it had
finished before you can open any new windows. However, I accidentally
found that if you simply minimise the download dialog to the Dock, you
can then open windows again.

In all my searching on the Mozilla web site I haven't found any
reference to this yet.
