When a download is active, Firefox does not prevent windows from sleeping, thus loosing the file. How can one fix that?

You would have to disable this feature in Windows or possibly start a program (media player) that disable this feature.

Thanks. It is strange that Firefox does not do that automatically: any download manager does this! Should I submit this as a feature request?
