Stop Firefox asking where to save downloads with Watir-Webdriver by changing profile

My friend James has been using watir-webdriver to test his latest work. He was having trouble with Firefox prompting for the location to save files, which blocked the scripts he was running. While I’d like to claim some credit for pointing him at some helpful links, I think my real contribution was limited to being a friendly ear.

Anyway, he figured out how to fix this by changing the profile that Firefox runs with, so now you won’t have to. Check out his solution at http://jamesladdcode.com/?p=338
