because you use a braindamaged software like mozilla. i thought
iexplore was the only browser idiotic enough to try to stuff whole
downloads into $TEMP before moving them to the specified location
*without checking for free space first*.
another iexplore is the last thing we need. someone should tell the
mozilla authors.

if you used fetch(1) (/usr/bin/fetch) or wget(1)
(/usr/ports/ftp/wget), you wouldn't have this problem.
