Ack!  Never seen this one.  What browser are you using?  Have you tried 
starting your browser at the command line, doing the test, and seeing if 
there are any error messages you can work with?  I would suspect first a 
permissions problem on a temp directory.  A right-click and 
save-link-target-as will maybe tell you where the browser is trying to 
save the temp file.
