Ubuntu and Standalone: Attached pdfs fail
I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 with Firefox 14.0.1 behind a university proxy that requires authentication. When I use the standalone client to capture a journal record (from, say, Jstor) the attached pdf icon shows for about two minutes (without creating a file or folder). Then it disappears. Nothing seems to download.
This behaviour does not occur when I use Zotero inside the browser. I have looked for duplicates of this issue but not exhaustively.

Check if you get the pdf for an open access paper like:

If that works, this is a problem in how standalone and proxy work together in your case and we'd need more details on the proxy - i.e. a sample URL as you see it.
