Everytime I attempt to save a movie from a website by
clicking "save target as" it is downloading the file as a document. The same thing happens when I try to stream the file, a page opens with gibberish. I have found that I can stream only by entering the url address in Windows Media Player. I'm just trying to save WMV and MPEG to my hard drive. Any help would be greatly appreciated! |

They're streaming movies, so they are supposed to work by opening your Media
Player and playing the movie 'live'. They are not designed to be right clicked on! Occasionally they can be found in the Temporary Internet Files folder if you then want to copy and paste them out of there to your own videos folder.
