I've been asked by a friend fix her PC. I set it up myself in the first place, and installed firefox as the main web browser.
The problem is that every time she goes to www.yahoo.com and tries to log into her email account, On pressing submit, firefox prompts to download a file called "login" the filetype being application/octet-stream.
A quick browse of the mozilla site tells me "application/octet-stream is generic binary data, so can not be handled by any specific program". This doesn't really help me fix it. Does anybody here know what to be doing about it?
I've tried both deleting the application data folder and uninstalling/re-installing firefox, but niether has solved the problem
