GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 88687
Download Manger continues to download in /tmp even if disk space is insufficient

As I understand the downloading process in Galeon, it first downloads the file to /tmp and then copies it over to the user-specified location. The problem is the download continues without any warning when the space is /tmp is less than the size of download. This is true even for HTTP downloads where the size of download is already known.

This is a behavior mandated by mozilla, which actually does the download.
