My firefox just got updated to 43.0. Starting with the update, all downloads fail. There is no file selection dialogue any more, just the blue arrow appears - and the downloads list says "Failed". I have tried the same on a clean profile with no add-ons, and downloads still fail.

In the browser console, I get the following error message on each download attempt:
[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE) [nsIAnnotationService.setPageAnnotation]" nsresult: "0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE)" location: "JS frame :: resource://app/modules/DownloadsCommon.jsm :: onDownloadChanged :: line 735" data: no]

Steps to reproduce:
Klick on any downloadable file on a website (e.g. ZIP oder PDF).

Result:
Blue arrow appears, downloads list says "failed" under the download filename. The file will not download.

Expected result:
File dialogue (with appropriate settings). File being downloaded from the internet.

Versions:
Kubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
Firefox 43.0+build1-0ubuntu0.14.04.1
