Perhaps you can edit the Download Preferances in Gecko-Based w/e to
download to a differant directory? Try /tmp or even /home/you/download/.
If it has to do with your home directory being very large, this may help.
Also, perhaps an aptitude reinstall of some of the mozilla/gecko
libraries will help? It seems that these are common in all packages:
libatk1.0-0
libcairo2
libfontconfig1
libglib2.0-0
libgtk2.0-0
libstdc++6
libx11-6
libxi6
libxrender1
zlib1g
