#8625: Wrong file-creation-error message text when downloading to Windows

 Premise: MS Windows doesn't allow colons (:) in file names, but *nix does.

 When I download a file from a Linux system that has a colon (:) in it to
 my Windows computer, I get an error message saying:

 {{{Cannot create file [filename]. Please contact your webhost for further
 Help.}}}
 (Or similar, my language is in German.)

 The problem is that in this case the error lies not with the webhost, but
 with the local operating system. So I propose to check if it's a download
 or an upload and change the message accordingly. So for download it should
 rather be:

 {{{ Cannot create file [filename]. Your operating system does not seem to
 support the filename.}}}
