Disable FireFox Download Panel Automatically Opening
A change was made to FireFox where if you download a file, the download box opens and steals focus from the website.

To disable this, go to about:config and search for browser.download.alwaysOpenPanel and set it to false by double clicking on the row. The change should be immediate.
