Hey I'm not sure if this is the place to post this but anyway I'm finding that every time I download something of firefox this random file shows up and when I delete it another shows up. They look like this, 8k02T4Gw.exe.part, olUVNdN+.html.part, Y4L+bFJH.mp3.part. Anyone know what this means?

Way... way too many specs to list.
sure, it's the temporary file name of the file you're downloading. Once it's finished successfully it should mv the file to the correct filename. The .part tells firefox that it's not a complete file.
