Yep, still present on a new clean user, reproduceable with test-case: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5369513
** Description changed: Clicking some links in firefox-3.0 to download files displays the open/save dialog correctly, but if 'open' is selected with the default application, it fails with an error. Saving works as intended. The resulting error is: Download Error /tmp/(filename) could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences.
