Can't download from my link

    I have placed some mp3 files into a folder in my httpdocs.
    Then I emailed the link to a file.

    When I select the emailed link, the mp3 plays. But I'd like to download the file, but I don't see where/how.

    When I right click the link, my only choices are:
    Select All
    Look Up...
    Translate...

    The greyed-out (unavailable) choices are:
    Cut
    Copy
    Paste
    Clear

    Shouldn't it be when I right click the link the choices should be
    Save
    Save As

    I'm using IE, and the same is true when i put the url in the browser of when I Alt-F. Save is still greyed out.

    How can I do this correctly so it's easy to download the file?

    Thanks.

    First I would dump IE and get a real browser, then I make sure you get the same results on FireFox.

    Thanks for your reply, but being this is for a web site, I'll need it to work in IE, as well as, Firefox.
