I have noticed that the problem happens only with big files. a 100K picture didn't cause any trouble but a 3M pic caused the problem.
Maybe there is a default size limit for uploading files with Firefox?
Now, if the error message appears after you actually choose a file and begin the upload process, which it sounds to be your issue, then it may be some specific code within your script that checks for different user agents and processes differently or if you have something in your server configuration that was browser-specific and changes accordingly. In either case, the browser really should have nothing to do with any server-side script processing in order to simply upload a file.
I would begin by checking for any browser-specific code in your upload script. Next, I would check for browser-specific directives in your server configuration (including any per-directory override files, i.e. .htaccess files).
it may be some specific code within your script
Enter "about:config" in the address bar. Scroll down the list of options to 'network.http.keep-alive'. That setting should be 'true'. If its 'false', double-click on it and it will toggle to 'true'. The next setting 'network.http.keep-alive.timeout' is the number of seconds that Firefox waits for its response. If you double-click on it, you'll get a dialog box that will let you change the setting. Again, this might not help with uploads, but might be worth a try.
