I tried using IE and it worked fine! I normally use Firefox so I will look into the settings. Thanks very much for your help!

 Just tried in Chrome, Firefox and IE10, and
 right-clicking a file (not a 
 folder) gives “Save link as” or “save target
 as”.
  
 Perhaps whatever browser you are using has been set up
 to play rather than 
 be able to download mp3s, perhaps with a plug-in such as
 Quick Time or 
 VLC.
  
 If you don’t know how to disable that then download a
 browser you don’t 
 already have and it should by default allow right-click
 save-as.

 No - going directly to the page on the mooo server with
 the 
 folders.

 OK 
 are you trying to download from a message on the
 mailing list? And if so 
 
 are you doing this from the web version rather than 
 the
 email?

 Also, 
 
 some users post files on sendspace etc and the
 link is to a webpage 
 
 
 rather than directly to a file. URL shorteners such as Tiny
 URL can 
 
 interfere 
 with the right-click save-as functionality.

 For stuff from 
 the 
 Mooo, you need to go to the
 referring page; click the 
 link and remove 
 
 the file name from the URL -  refresh
 the page, then find 
 the 
 file 
 you want on that page and right-click/download
 linked file – you'll 
 
 need 
 to log in to the Mooo server and then the file 
 
 should
 download,
 Cheers
 Roger

 Hi All,
 
 I haven't 
 been 
 on here in a while and when I went to
 download 
 something I 
 didn't get the 
 "save target as"
 option on the right-click. Tried it 
 
 with a few other 
 files on here - same thing. I never used to
 have a 
 problem, any 
 
 
 suggestions?
