I can't test the same swf you are using because you didn't include a link. However, this is probably because of HTTP headers. Web sites can force downloading as attachment using the Content-Disposition header. This sounds like what is happening.
Could you pls have a look at Comment #3, I tested with same .swf file and same action. If my operation was wrong, could you pls list the correct steps for setting Download Actions? Thanks.

Fedora Core 5 and Fedora Core 6 are, as we're sure you've noticed, no longer test releases. We're cleaning up the bug database and making sure important bug reports filed against these test releases don't get lost. It would be helpful if you could test this issue with a released version of Fedora or with the latest development / test release. Thanks for your help and for your patience. [This is a bulk message for all open FC5/FC6 test release bugs. I'm adding myself to the CC list for each bug, so I'll see any comments you make after this and do my best to make sure every issue gets proper attention.]
Still found the problem in: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070325 Firefox/2.0.0.3
Moving to devel as per comment #9.
We just updated the Firefox version in Fedora/development from 2.0 to a 3.0 pre-release version, which improves performance, memory usage, and fixes many bugs and crashes. Closing as CANTFIX since we aren't fixing bugs filed against 2.0 now that 3.0 is in. If this bug is still present in rawhide using a Firefox 3.0 version, please re-open this bug. Thanks and Happy Holidays
