Jeff, I'm having the exact same issue. I have a large folder cut into 2 gig rar pieces. Where previously, I could download 4-5 files simultaneously, I now can't seem to have more than one downloading, and even then sometimes the single file download fails at some point in the download process. Sometimes I can resume the download, other times I hit resume and it starts the download from the beginning again.
I'm using firefox 42, and it says it's up to date. I changed virus scanners recently, so just to eliminate that from the equation, I completely disable my AV, but I still get the same errors.
I hope this gets fixed soon, as it's very annoying.
