hi
I have not been able to download MP3's. Whenever i click on a link that says "download song", instead of a dialog box opening asking me what i wud like to do with the file i.e Open, save or cancel, it directly launches windows media player and the song begins to stream. Even a right click and 'save target as' does not work...it pops up a dialog box that saves an html document instead of a media file.

how do i save the songs instead of streaming them?

I use Windows XP professional and Windows media player 10.

My way is to let the song stream ... and "save as" the file when its done.

Could you let us know which site are you downloading from ?
Possible the site admin has provided a different way of saving the MP3 file and instructions might be there mentioned on teh site.
