Downloading links are easy to find. A download prompt can be a button  or it could be a text link that appears like this: Download Now! Remember: Download prompts come in all shapes and sizes!

What do I do with the download? Once you have intiated the downolad by clicking the download link, your computer asks, "What you want to do with the file?"  Should it be opened from where it lies? Or should it be saved on yourcomputer's hard drive?

Your
options: Run the program, or Save the program to your hard disk. Always choose the Save option. You want the file located on your hard drive, right? The Netscape browser skips the preliminary questions
and goes straight to the Save As box. Next >
