Mozilla Crashes When You Click on an RPM Hyperlink RPM

Problem  

Mozilla crashes, when you click on a hyperlink to a Linux RPM package file. 

Mozilla registers all .rpm files as RealPlayer media. If you click on a Linux package file, Mozilla crashes because the RealPlayer plugin does not process invalid .rpm files correctly.

Solution  

Right-click on the .rpm link and select Save Link Target As... from the menu.
