Thanks Mark!  

I wonder why this recent Firefox change only affects ADI downloads from
LoTW?

1 - download and install Content-Type Fixer

2 - Start Firefox. At the top right you will see an icon with a hammer,
click on it to see the menu of Content-Type Fixer

3 - Check Auto-start with Firefox and check Follow my settings (inline)

4 - Log into LOTW and download your log file. At the moment it is still
without extension but this action is necessary to get the extension adi in
the log of Content-Type Fixer.

5 - click again on the hammer icon and click on Add/Edit Content Types in
the menu

6 - you now see the Log of Recent Requests. Under the header Action Tasks
for the extension adi you will then probably see something like this. :

C-T: Updated CT header from "application/x-arrl-adif; charset=iso-8859-1" to
"application/octet-stream". 

 

7 - Click the Add button, select the input field and type in
application/octet-stream and then click the Update Content-Type button.

8 - If you download again, the file should have the extension .adi. You only
need to do this once.
